Municipal regulatory by-laws are not an effective tool to address these problems. Being convicted of a by-law offence and being sentenced to a fine (or, alternatively, being given an administrative monetary penalty by the municipality) is not much of a disincentive to a person who has zero means and zero intention of ever paying said fine or AMP.
