Know your rights
An interesting article about the right that you have to photograph people on the street. It is from the United States, but the situation is similar in Canada.
“For the most part, that means that as long as your shooting position is on public ground, you can photograph whatever you wish; this includes subjects situated on private property but within public view, such as a couple sitting on a restaurant patio that you can view from the street or a waiter who is taking a smoke break on his employer’s back step.
Similarly, contrary to popular belief, you do not need to obtain parental or guardian consent to photograph children on or visible from public property.”
