What is the privacy interest of the owner of a motor vehicle when entering a private property?

Ontario, Canada


The following excerpt is from R. v. Soal, 2005 CanLII 2323 (ON SC):

In examining this issue, it is important to distinguish between entering private property and entering a dwelling house. This appeal deals only with entering private property, not a dwelling house. It is also important to distinguish between the privacy interest of the owner of a dwelling house, which is not of concern in this appeal, and the reduced privacy interest of the owner of a motor vehicle, which is of concern: Wise v. The Queen (1992), 1992 CanLII 125 (SCC), 70 C.C.C.(3d) 193 (S.C.C.) at 217-218.
