An application could still be brought on the first offence, as Monsieur Comartin indicated. The crown attorney could make an application for a designated offence. The change this brings is if we have three of those convictions under the circumstances Mr. Hoover enumerated, on an application.... Again, it's still discretionary by the crown attorney whether to go forward with that, but if they do go ahead there would be a reversal of the onus. The onus would shift to the individual who has been convicted for the third time.
