Does aggressive behaviour need to require physical force?
Ontario, Canada
The following excerpt is from R. v Wong, 2016 ONSC 6362 (CanLII):
Aggressive behaviour does not require an element of physical force. Instead, aggressive behaviour “is a vague term that can run the gamut between ‘pushy and overly-confident’ to ‘extremely violent’” (R v Campbell, [1992] O.J. No 2079 at p.23 (O.C.J); R v R.J.M, [2008] O.J. No 5991 at para 70 (S.C.J.); R v. S.L., [2011] O.J. No.6078 at para. 32 (O.C.J.).
