Question: Which section of the Criminal Code of Canada outlines the definition of 'peace officer,' a role security guards generally do NOT hold?

Answer options: ✅ Section 2

  • Section 7
  • Section 495
  • Section 265

Security guards, in most Canadian jurisdictions, are not typically designated as peace officers and therefore do not possess the same statutory powers.
