NOVA SCOTIA: Crystal
Crescent Beach.
The third beach at Crystal Crescent, in the Sambro-area outside
Halifax, has been used by nudists for decades and in recent years has
become almost legal.
In 2001, there was an attack on this beach by local police, but in
October of 2001, Nova Scotia's top prosecutor decided not to proceed
with charges indicating that nudity at an isolated beach is a
criminal act only when it involves "blatant or wilful disregard for
the statutes, or aggressive exhibitionism, lewd conduct or indecent
acts." [Last info, March 2002]
Update: The Halifax Herald reported 23 nude sunbathers on
Monday, July 28, 3003. They indicated that neither the police nor
users of the adjacent beaches were concerned about the nudity on the
third beach at Crystal Crescent. "The RCMP announced last year that
they would not arrest people who sunbathe nude at Crystal Crescent
Beach's third beach. ... Tantallon RCMP announced last year they
would no longer arrest people for going nude on the beach. 'It's a
somewhat grey area, open for interpretation,' said Staff Sgt. Peter
McTiernan, the officer in charge of the RCMP's Tantallon office.
'Last year, we laid some charges and the Crown decided that they
would not pursue them. That pretty much ended it right there.' While
nude sunbathing is allowed, Staff Sgt. McTiernan said the RCMP would
still investigate any complaints of lewd behaviour. But he said that
to his knowledge, the RCMP have not been called out to the beach for
such a complaint this year." [The
Halifax Herald, July 29, 2003]
