		However, in the 1979 criminal code all but two of the twelve types of counterrevolutionary charges were punishable by death, thus the new law reduces by a small degree the scope of the death penalty's applicability to the offenses covered in the chapter.
		In the 1979 criminal code, two types of offenses relating to secret materials were defined: "stealing, secretly gathering and providing intelligence for an enemy" (Article 97), punishable by life imprisonment or death; and violation of laws and regulations governing secrets (Article 186), punishable by a maximum of seven years in prison.

	Canada's Criminal Code: A History
		An initial set of nine statutes was passed by the federal House of Commons in 1869 to at least consolidate the law for coinage offences, forgery, offences against the person, larceny, malicious injuries to property, perjury and procedure.
		The 1892 Canadian Criminal Code copied much of the English 1878 bill and it has since been revised numerous times, to accommodate the needs of changing times, such as amendments for gun control, the elimination of the death penalty and of abortion offenses and the creation of drunk-driving offences.
