What is the range of sentence for an assault with intent to pervert the course of justice?

Nova Scotia, Canada


The following excerpt is from R v J.T.K., 2017 NSSC 345 (CanLII):

I have considered the cases provided to me by the Crown in R v. M, 2000 BCSC 683 and in R. v. Lewis, 2013 ONSC 3181. Those cases reflect that the range of sentence suggested here is in keeping with the principles of sentencing for these types of offences, certainly in those particular provinces.
