Which of the following statements is NOT correct?

D
Answer
Regulations and administration
Type
A
In executing a warrant, a radio inspector shall not use force, unless accompanied by a peace officer, and force is authorized
B
Where entry is refused, and is necessary to perform their duties under the Radiocommunication Act, a radio inspector may obtain a warrant
C
The person responsible for a dwelling entered by a radio inspector shall provide the inspector the requested information
D
A radio inspector may enter a dwelling without the consent of the occupant and without a warrant

Answer Notes

Under the Canadian Radiocommunication Act, radio inspectors have specific legal limits on their powers of entry. While they can perform inspections to ensure compliance, they absolutely cannot enter a private dwelling without the occupant's consent unless they have first obtained a warrant. Because the question asks which statement is NOT correct, the claim that an inspector can enter without consent and without a warrant is the right choice. The other options are true legal statements: inspectors can get a warrant if entry is refused, the person responsible for the dwelling must provide requested information, and inspectors cannot use force without a peace officer and proper authorization.
