	~~After a certain waiting period~~, ~~you may apply for a record suspension which removes your record from the Canadian Police Information Centre database so that it does not appear in a criminal record~~ check~~. This will remove almost all of~~ the ~~restrictions of having a criminal record, though it does not guarantee entry into other countries and sexual offences will still appear in a vulnerable sector check~~.		For more detailed information, please check out the links below.

	~~The waiting periods are~~:		;What is a Record Suspension?
	* 10 years for indictable offence		:Removes a criminal record from public view but does not erase it. It can be reinstated if another crime is committed.
	* 5 years for summary offence

	~~If you were convicted only of simple possession of cannabis~~, ~~you are exempt from these waiting periods~~.		;How does it help?
			:Allows for clear background checks for jobs, volunteering, or other activities.

	~~In deciding whether~~ to ~~approve~~ your ~~application~~, the ~~parole board considers the nature~~ of ~~the~~ offence, ~~your conduct since release, and whether the suspension will help your continued rehabilitation. The fee~~ to ~~apply for a suspension is $50, but you are also responsible for costs involved~~ in ~~your application such as requesting fingerprints~~ and ~~criminal record checks~~.		;How to Apply
			:* Apply to the Parole Board of Canada.
			:* Eligibility: Complete your sentence, including fines. Depending on the date of a person's first offence, waits can differ substantially due to legislative amendments in 2010 and 2012 and subsequent court review.

	~~You are ineligible~~ for ~~a record suspension if you have committed 3~~ or ~~more~~ indictable offences ~~each with a sentence of 2 or more years, or~~ if ~~you were convicted of a schedule 1 offence and do not fit~~ the ~~exception criteria~~.		;Costs
			:Application fee: $50.00. Additional fees for police and court records. Free or low-cost help may be available locally.

			;Decision Process
			:The Board assesses offences and positive life changes.

			;Timing
			:Decisions can take up to 6 months for summary offences and 1 year for indictable offences. The process may take longer if the Parole Board requires more information.

	This booklet was created by frontline advocates to help Indigenous Peoples understand how federal laws impact their lives and the special legal protections that exist within the national framework. Despite that Indigenous Peoples are subject to federal laws, understanding their rights is daunting, particularly as the legal landscape changes in response to systemic racism and discrimination. As the journey continues to have their inherent rights recognized and upheld in every legal system in Canada, there are even fewer legal supports to help Indigenous Peoples navigate the laws that govern their relationship with the federal government. The provinces offer legal aid lawyers and resources for laws administered by the province, particularly in the family and criminal law systems but there is no automatic right to a lawyer in the federal system. For Indigenous Peoples situated in remote areas, geographic barriers pose a further challenge in accessing the legal help needed to ensure their rights are understood and upheld.

	As an Indigenous lawyer working in the legal system, very often on behalf of Indigenous Peoples who are impacted by federal laws, I am grateful to the collective efforts of those involved in the creation of this booklet as it provides practical information and guidance on federal legal issues in easy-to-understand terms. Given the need to help Indigenous Peoples learn about their federally protected rights and the national application of federal laws, the reach in this booklet extends beyond the borders of British Columbia and will benefit Indigenous Peoples across Turtle Island, otherwise known as Canada.

-The section on [[Dispute Resolution for Tenants|Dispute Resolution]] explained the dispute resolution process and the very limited grounds for disputing a decision. If you are not happy with a decision made by a [[Residential Tenancy Branch]] arbitrator, the only way to get the decision changed is to apply for a review, which is done only in limited circumstances. You could also apply for a judicial review at Supreme Court, but again there are only very limited grounds for review and the process could get expensive. It is estimated that 90 percent of judicial reviews fail.
