A short answer? Okay.
When you add an element to an offence already existing in the Criminal Code, that element has to be proved. It doesn't lend to efficiency if it's not necessary. Use the first-degree murder example. If you are going to allege that a first-degree murder becomes a first-degree murder because the murder is done in association with or to the benefit of a criminal organization, you have to start by proving the criminal organization, proving the benefit, proving the involvement, as opposed to simply proving planning and deliberation, or a conspiracy or group.
The other thing, of course, is if you're convicted of second-degree murder, the punishment is life imprisonment. Aggravating circumstances are going to bring your parole eligibility close to 25 years.
If the committee ever gets a chance, look at the Bonner case in terms of what Madam Justice Fuerst had to go through in establishing a criminal organization. I think we were talking about the Hells Angels in that case. When we're trying to run an expedient system, if you add an unnecessary element, then I would respectfully submit it's going to add a complexity of time, cost, expense, and delay in the system where it's not necessary. That's my point.
