What directive section guides park wardens when dealing with criminal offences?

The directive that guides park wardens when it comes to handling criminal offences is indeed Ontario Parks DIR 20.01. This directive outlines the procedures and responsibilities of park wardens in relation to criminal matters, ensuring they are informed on how to effectively enforce laws and manage situations that involve criminal activity within the parks.

Understanding this directive is crucial for wardens as it establishes a framework for their actions and decision-making processes in potentially volatile situations involving criminal offences. It communicates the expectations of how park wardens should act in accordance with legal standards and park regulations, helping maintain safety and order within the provincial parks.

The focus of the other directives focuses on different aspects of park management or specific operational protocols that do not directly relate to criminal offences. Therefore, while they are important for the overall functioning of park operations, they do not provide the specific guidance needed for dealing with criminal matters as provided in DIR 20.01.
