Can you have a charge taken off your criminal record that's been repealed?
Under the ex post facto rule, you cannot be charged with a criminal offense if it was not a criminal offense at the time you committed it. By the same token, if you committed a criminal offense that has since been repealed (meaning this is no longer a criminal offense) you still are considered having a criminal record for that offense.

Malicious mischief is typically considered a criminal offense rather than a civil case.

Can you file for criminal mischief in small claims court?
No. Criminal mischief is a crime (as far as i know its a misdemeanor, but it could be a felony somewhere). Being that it is a crime it goes to a criminal court.

You just need to be able to prove what it cost(s) to fix these losses.

The difference between private and public law has already been described. Another important distinction is that between "civil" and "criminal" cases. A civil case is another way of referring to a private case or "suit" -- that is, where someone sues someone else. A criminal case involves a prosecution by the Crown under a public law statute such as the Criminal Code, the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act or the Competition Act. I hope that answer your question.
