Thank you.
I noted on page 3 of your submission you talked about the fact that fewer accused would likely plead guilty and the impact that could have on the court system. I'm thinking about section 7 of the charter and the principle of fundamental justice, that folks have the right to have a trial within a reasonable amount of time. I'm wondering if you have thoughts about whether or not the unintended consequence of this bill could be such a buildup at the court level that in fact more people will have their cases dismissed.
