Who enforces the laws in Canada?
I'm not sure if you mean which police force enforces laws or which courts do. Canada has a Federal police force, the RCMP which is a national police force. THey are responsible for enforcing Federal law, but they are also expected to enforce provincial and local laws as well. In some areas of Canada, they are the only police - there is no municipal or provincial police Some Provinces also have police forces such as the OPP (ontario provincial police) who enforce highway laws, provincial laws then cities have a police force. Not sure if this is what you asked, but hope it does.
