Things We Hear as Canadian Pardon Professionals

Guess what? We’ve heard it all.

Drug trafficking, assault causing bodily harm, gang-related offending, domestic incidents, sexual assaults, child pornography, deportations, large-scale fraud, etc.

Part of the Canadian pardon application process is a personal statement, formally known as a ‘Measurable Benefit/Sustained Rehabilitation Form’. This is an applicant’s chance to tell their side of the story; their own words, giving insight into the circumstances surrounding their criminal record.

At Suspend This we help to craft personal explanation letters, and as a result get to hear the history of criminal records from those young, old, from different backgrounds and upbringings, CEOs, government workers, professionals, and everything in between.

What we assure our clients, our promise, is that we do not judge anyone on their criminal record, past actions, employment status, or explanation(s) of their offence(s). Everyone has a past, and our focus is on the future, criminal record free!

We strive to make you feel comfortable to tell us about your past, while understanding how difficult it can be to re-live moments in time you’ve tried hard to forget. We’ve dealt with anger, tears, and embarrassment, and realize that emotion is part of the process. We’re here to listen as professionals, then assist you in telling your story to the Parole Board in a way that conveys your truth and benefits your Canadian pardon application.

We keep your information confidential, always.

Our service includes assistance with your personal statement, or (if writing isn’t your strong-suit), we can help with your Measurable Benefit letter only. Give us a call to determine what is best for you. Consultations are FREE!
