In Canada…

In Canada you are “presumed” innocent until proven guilty.” It is a just and right position.

Equally though, you are “considered” guilty until proven innocent. How many people, when then hear of someone being charged with a crime, talk as if the person actually commited the act before the trial even begins. That a person can be detained until trial unless they make bail or are released on their own recognizance. This is a sad reflection on the first statement.
