Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
I want to get back to the question of youth. I think Inspector Franks mentioned, in response to one of my earlier questions, that they are being used as pawns for criminal organizations. I've heard that throughout the country as well.
We're currently going to have a debate in Parliament about changing the YCJA in some respects. I hope the intent of the law would be to surgically pluck the youth under 18 who have been pawns or who have performed adult actions and maybe should be treated as adults.
Particular to this forum, would an increase in the sanctions, or at least the bad results to a youth under these changes contemplated by the new amendments, aid in respect of combatting organized crime if in fact the organizers in the organized crime groups are using youth as pawns? Would it assist in your day-to-day operations?
