Evaluation of Article
The contents of this article are all relevant to the topic of criminal law in Canada. The article does outline the basic components of criminal law as it pertains to Canada. The article is generally written neutrally, however, criminal law in Canada is a very colonial construct and therefore I would argue that it is a hard subject area to be written without bias. This article is written with a very matter-of-fact, and formal tone, which can be very effective but also should be read with caution. I think adding in more statistics and facts would be useful instead of only outlining the basics of each topic under the subject. I also think that there are some areas that are underdeveloped, such as "Young Offenders". Another issue I found with this article is the mention of the 'Controlled Drugs and Substances Act' in the lead but the failure to mention it and explain the act elsewhere in the article. In terms of the information the article does provide, there appears to be a lack in diversity in the sources. The information being presented seems to be from single sources for each topic/content instead of gathering information from multiple sources and compiling information. Finally, the article does not tackle Wikipedia's equity gaps, it has no mention of BIPOC and how they are represented or treated in terms of the criminal law of Canada, an addition of this topic could prove to be beneficial for this article.
