Fine.
I would like to put a question to our other witness. I believe you are the RCMP research chair, if I understood correctly. I didn't quite understand what you were saying. You said that on average, the sentences that are handed down in common law courts result in prison terms of eight days or less. If this bill were passed, conditional sentences would not be relevant because the bill involves minimum sentences. Under the current law, for a judge to be able to consider conditional sentences, there cannot be minimum sentences. Therefore, we won't speak about conditional sentences because they do not apply in this case. However, I'm having considerable trouble in understanding the statistics that you provided and I'd like you to go into somewhat more detail, while being brief because I do have other questions.
