To be honest, I don't think most people involved as victims or as offenders in most offences, maybe even particularly intimate partner violence, know whether something is a reverse onus or not. I don't think it is going to make much difference at the point of reporting or the processing of the case. I also am not confident that it would actually lead to what I presume is the intent of this, which is to detain more people, because Crown attorneys and judicial officials are very aware of the concerns about intimate partner violence. This one seems to me to be a gratuitous change that gives the wrong message.
Maybe it again goes back to the fact that I'm not a lawyer, but I think if I talked to people and said, “Who is the onus on, on release of somebody who is charged with a violent offence against an intimate partner?”, people wouldn't have a clue what I was talking about. Then if I explained it, they wouldn't have a clue as to what the answer was.
I have lots of worries. That's not one of them.
