What does section 361 of the Criminal Code define?

  1. Kidnapping

  2. False Pretence

  3. Theft

  4. Intimidation

The correct answer is: False Pretence

Section 361 of the Criminal Code defines the crime of false pretence, which involves knowingly making a false representation in order to obtain a benefit or cause a loss to another person. This differs from the other options because kidnapping, theft, and intimidation do not necessarily involve false representations and instead focus on different actions or intents. While all of these crimes involve deceit or dishonesty in some form, section 361 specifically focuses on the use of false pretences for fraudulent gain. Therefore, it is the most accurate and specific answer choice.
