The Radiotelecommunications Act in Canada (1), section 8, describes the powers of ISEC inspectors. They can request warrants to enter private dwellings, and if accompanied by peace officers and if permitted by the warrant, use force.
This was something that was highlighted during my amateur radio course almost 20 years ago.

Similar here in the states. I, as a ham, can't enter someone's house. The FCC gang who gave me a license are allowed to get a warrant to do that.
