    More charges in teen's death - Edmonton Sun,  Canada
    'Specifically (the new charges) had to do with the employment of an adolescent - in this case a 14-year-old - who was doing work that is not an approved occupation for adolescents,' said Linda Park, a spokesman for Alberta Human Resources and Employment.

    Park said the maximum penalty for a first offence under the Act is six months in prison and/or a $500,000 fine for each charge.
