He didn't necessarily break the law. He might've parked somewhere that was listed as no parking but was not hindering anybody to run to get something. Don't be so quick to judge..

How else would he get a parking ticket? From following the law?

Isn't parking where it's against the law to park breaking the law?

I'm not a lawyer, but it sounds like marcus:
Was accused of breaking a by-law (by the by-law officer)
challenged the accusation
was deemed innocent

First, go look up the definition of a bylaw. It's still a law. You don't have to be a lawyer to understand that, you just have to have the ability to read and comprehend a simple definition.

Secondly, he was found "innocent" due to an act on his part of changing the badging on his vehicle; but the truth of the matter is that he is still guilty of the parking offense he committed.

So I stand by my original statement...

Whether or not he's wrong is not in question, we all know that he parked illegally ;)

Also, the by-law enforcement officer could have made a(n actual) mistake. Hence the court system.

If parked in handicaped spot the ticked would be $500. And I would not support him here.
Same here, I'd throw him under the bus.

So, illegally parking is not against the law in Canada? And why would anyone issue him a ticket for it if it wasn't?!?

...And I think I get what you're saying.

Are you saying that he parked somewhere that said "No Parking" but he wasn't in anyone's way by doing so? For example: Let's say he parked by the curb of an empty street that nobody ever drive on, and it said "No Parking" and he got a ticket but he wasn't harming anyone to do so?
Sorry, i'm just a little confused by this.
