Actually in a few provinces it is NOT illegal to go topless in public, so making a sweeping statement that walking nude outdoors is illegal is incorrect.
At least in Ontario and Manitoba, the laws were changed a few years back, making it okay for women to be topless on beaches etc.
And wake up Amp. I'm not going to argue percentages with you because neither of us knows the real numbers, but Winnipeg has something like 1500 cops or so, and over the years I've come to know about 3 dozen of them for various reasons, from social contacts to less than social interactions. Of those, I it takes at least both hands to count the number of individuals whose attitude has changed for the worse after becoming a cop. Some of them are painfully arrogant and definitely on a power trip, don't kid yourself or anyone else. They exist. Some will simply bend or twist the letter of the law to suit their own agendas, .... like for example telling Aaron that he could be arrested as a sex offender. That is misuse and misinterpretation of an existing law if I've ever heard it. It sucks to have your integrity or professionalism questioned and insulted so brazenly, and I too would react as Aaron has.
He obviously took steps to keep his shoot out of the view of the public, by setting up in a somewhat remoted area of the park that was shaded from the general view, so I can see where one would feel a bit "crapped on". I don't think Aaron's reaction is so out of line. Cops may be just doing their jobs, but sometimes (I did say SOMETIMES) they could work on being a bit more tactful and graceous in certain situations. Insinuating that someone like Aaron is some sort of sex offender is certainly not using one's tact gland.
