Record Suspension vs Pardon

 What is the difference between a record suspension and a pardon?

There is no difference. The two terms are used interchangeably for the same process.

They are both just a process or application to expunge your criminal record for crimes committed in Canada. 

The more common term was “ Pardon” And the newer term is “ Records suspension” But both mean the same thing. 

These sort of life-changing processes can be intimidating and a bit confusing, but feel free to reach out for any additional assistance or clarification. Also, if you just have a general question, feel free to inquire.!

While intervention is necessary, focusing solely on it is like mopping the floor while the faucet is still running.
