Intruder Stabbed, Man Arrested

In another fine display of Canadian justice a man has been charged for stabbing one of three intruders. Seems to me that once you have found out that you have not one, not two, but three unknown individuals in your house it's safe to assume that they are not trick-or-treating. The next point I'd like to make is the fact that had these guys wanted to do this man or his family harm, three against one doesn't make for very good odds. And yet... He's been charged in the incident. Judging from the rise in violent home invasions in Canada, at what point do we decide that a citizen in this country has the right to defend himself, his property, or his home. As I've said before, a person in this country quite literally has to be dead or dying before the law gives them the right to assume that the person meant them harm. Perhaps it's time to have another look at these laws!
