These are all different components, and I've been shocked over my several years here in Parliament by the shameless posturing and pretense of politicians. I guess that cuts through most parties, and maybe once in a while it may have included me. But there's shameless posturing. It's as though by creatively rewriting a law, we're going to make a big difference to crime, when the guys that do the crime look at it in a rather binary way: either they get caught or they don't.
So why aren't you and your ministry focusing on the components of the criminal justice system that make a difference: the investigation, the prosecution, the conviction, the sentencing, the corrections, all of these areas where you can put rubber to the road? Simply by rewriting the law for a drive-by shooting.... It's already a crime; the guy knows he's already in trouble if he gets caught.
How do you think you're making a difference there by focusing on rewriting a law?
