In 2003, British Columbia Premier Gordon Campbell pleaded guilty to the misdemeanour of drinking and driving in Hawaii. Despite pleading guilty to a criminal offence Campbell did not have to step down as premier, although Canadian laws state that a person convicted of a criminal offence may not hold political office. What does this demonstrate?


People who commit crimes are labelled as criminals.

People who commit serious crimes are labelled as criminals, but people who commit less serious crimes are not.

Campbell is not a criminal.

Social status plays a significant role in whether the label of criminal is applied.
