I find it unacceptable that you do not have an answer with respect to violent crimes. That is the crux of this debate. I was expecting you to be able to answer. It is your responsibility to do so. We are here specifically to consider this bill.
What will this mean for incarcerated individuals? I'd like to remind you, as to the two-year provision, that you are about to download the responsibility for incarceration to the provinces. In Quebec, Manitoba and the maritime provinces, how many people will end up in provincial jails? What kind of costs will that amount to for each of these provinces? We are entitled to expect figures from you that are more specific than the rough estimates you have provided for us. It is your responsibility as an elected representative and the Minister of Justice to do this, not the Canadian Centre for Justice Statistics. So, we want to deal with you.
