Some of these recommendations probably have value even to those living outside the U.S.A.

Right to remain silent in various countries: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right_to_silence#Canada.

I wonder how much this applies to statements made when one is not accused of a crime but is interviewed as a witness. Something said then as a witness could be used later to incriminate said witness but wouldn't refusing to give information as a witness be considered obstruction of justice?

This is the second time I've watched that video now, always good to keep in the back of your mind, just in case.
