Correct

Now if someone who is drunk decides to drive (criminal offence), and receives information that helps them circumvent being caught due to information you provided, how is that person not liable?

Posting twitter updates on checkstops is not illegal. Your argument ends here.

Now take the drunk driver. They take and alternate route due to information you provided, and hit someone in a cross walk, killing them instantly. Would you want the person who assisted in the crime by posting the check stop on twitter to face justice? at least morally?

To face justice? Absoluetly not. That's a damn slippery slope to want that kind of justice to be available in a country, especially in a progressive country like Canada.
