I am a retired Toronto Police officer:
Go to court, and locate the officer who gave you the ticket before court starts. If he isn't there then speak with the crown and tell them you want a trial but haven't seen the officer. The crown with withdraw the ticket if the officer isn't there as they can't offer evidence without the officer.
If the officer is there tell him you'd be willing to plea to 15kmh over the limit, ie: 65 in a 50 kmh zone. You won't lose any demerit points for that and the fine will be lower.
If this is your first ticket then your insurance shouldn't be effected and the ticket will come off your record in 3 years if you don't get any other tickets.
You'll pay over $200 to have a representative in court and will likely do exactly the same thing for you.
