All right.
Our biggest concern with Bill C-43 is the expansion of the serious criminality definition, which would make essentially anybody who had been convicted and had spent six months in jail unable to appeal on humanitarian and compassionate grounds.
What we're seeing right now, even with the two years, is that it's quite an unreasonable period of time, because often humanitarian and compassionate grounds are the only way for an individual to express his or her mental health concerns and put that information out there. In other instances, when you look, on paper, at what the charge may be, it really looks at what the offence is. It doesn't look at their circumstances. It doesn't look at the judge's discretion and the crown's discretion in the criminal justice system. It's really quite black and white.
