From the actual Criminal Code of Canada
Er, and? Are you just posting random screenshots now? Is it that you actually think the bit you're showing us proves you're right?
S.229 says, among other things, that if you cause death while intending to injure the victim or any other person, or while committing an offence, then it's murder if you were reckless about the possibility of causing death. You don't have to intend to kill.
S.231 goes on, after the bit you've chosen to screenshot, to say that killing certain categories of people, or in the course of certain crimes, is first degree murder whether or not you'd planned it.
But you're right, linking to the actual criminal code is a bit more useful than Wikipedia's summary.

And even with that qualification, you're still wrong in every one of your assertions in at least some of the 50-odd jurisdictions that includes.
(You might be right for 1st degree murder in some of them (though, if I read correctly, not under US Federal jurisdiction or the Canadian uniform code), but I CBA with more than a cursory google)
