It depends on the circumstances. What is the situation?

Keep in mind Hrae, that you are in US and Mikey's in Canada.

In the US and you're under investigation, I'm sure they're allowed to.

Yeah, I made sure to put in the distinction between US and Canadian law in my message to Mikey.
Also, Jik, they don't have to have a warrant if they are arresting you.

In the US, the cops can ask to see your cell phone but can't take it without a warrant unless you're being arrested. At least as much as the caselaw that I've read. There are some grey areas concerning whether the phone is considered a closed container or part of the person...
