In Canada we do not have the Miranda rights. We can be arrested and held without to police needing to tell us what we have be charged with. No I do not know this by personal experience . But as CS said it is very advisable to follow the instructions of a police officer and not be confrontational. This could lead to further charges or resons to be held. In Canada you'd be facing Obstructing Justice if you do not cooperate. Although not doubt embarrassing to Brad, and I understand him being PO'd, the officer had just cause to investigate Brad. Personally I'd rather be investigated and released than allow criminal the opportunity to escape justice.
