Yes, it is enormous, but a judge cannot declare that a person... The difference, clearly — and I agree that it is fundamental —, is that it will be up to the offender to prove that he or she must be granted parole. For a person to be declared a dangerous offender, he or she must have racked up quite a collection of serious offences.
What I do not understand is that if there is a difficulty procedurally, administratively or in the way in which justice is carried out, let us not wait until the person is at his or her third offence.
