The maximum fine under the Trespass To Property Act is

  1. $4000

  2. $25,000

  3. $2000

  4. $100

The correct answer is: $2000

The Trespass to Property Act in Ontario sets forth various penalties for offenses related to trespassing. Under this Act, the maximum financial penalty that can be imposed for an offence is $2000. This is to deter people from trespassing and establish a legal consequence for violations of the Act. Keep in mind that this is the maximum fine, and the actual fine imposed may be less, depending on the circumstances and severity of the trespass. This value is set by the Act itself, thus making it the legal maximum that can be imposed by a court in Ontario for violations of the Trespass to Property Act.
