Your understanding is correct - Not guilty Trial.

Always Option 3.
With Option 3 you still have the leverage of forcing them to put on a full trial and use court time. Thus you can make a plea deal.

It will depend on how they do it at the court house you will be attending. But you should be able to get a plea bargain simply by speaking to the crown prior to the start of court on your day.
Asking for disclosure will not change the way the crown handl…

I think your first problem is that Blacks is an American Law Dictionary.
But more importantly, you need to look at the relevant Act. Each Act defines the scope and meaning of the terms its using, and its normally found in the first section of the Act.

Congrats on your win!
I'm surprised that the crown seemed so upset. With most people fighting a ticket being "sheep to the slaughter", you would expect the crown to appreciate a good fight.
It looks the the JP did and he's was the one that counts.
