In Saskatchewan, arson is any act that causes fire or explosion on someone else's property. You can be charged with arson if you intentionally or recklessly set a fire or cause an explosion that damages your or someone else's property, for fraudulent purposes, by negligence or with disregard for human life. The penalties for arson range widely, depending on the circumstances of your case. On the "lower" end, you will face fines and up to 5 years in prison, but you could face up to life, depending on the circumstances.
