Note on this entry
PARTIAL: s. 482 (unauthorized use of a computer to affect an election) was read from the official text, but the general punishment provision (s. 500) and the general offence provision (s. 480) were not retrieved, so no range is stated — re-check before publishing.

Not legal advice. This range is the statutory penalty as written in the law — it is
not “your sentence.” What is NOT accounted for here: Priors beyond tier, attempt, concurrence, plea, discretion, ancillary orders, deregistration / loss of eligibility consequences. If you face a real
charge, consult a licensed lawyer in the relevant jurisdiction.
