There is just one thing that can be said. First of all, when there are serious offences, as I've already mentioned, there are dispositions in the code for offenders to be controlled, or for long-term offenders. So if that's the issue, it's already there.
You say that the judge can always make a decision, but if there is a minimum, that's what we're saying, that the judge has no discretion. And on the finding of guilt, a jury is never informed of what the potential sentence is, so nobody can have that in the front or the back of their mind. It is against the law, currently in Canada, to inform a jury about the potential sentence the person they would be convicting would be facing.
