Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Mr. Dionne or Mr. Doob, either one of you could answer my question. Do you agree that the new legislation should, as it's been suggested, contain provisions that would allow judges to know about the extrajudicial sanctions involved in the case? You know that in Quebec, judges cannot know about extrajudicial sanctions. We're talking total confidentiality, and the system is very similar in other provinces. Do you agree that a judge should have full knowledge of all the extrajudicial sanctions that have been imposed on a young person going back seven or eight years, in order to be able to hand down the appropriate decision at the person's trial? The problem right now is that judges know absolutely nothing about the young offender being tried and sometimes render inappropriate decisions.
Are you favourable to this suggested change, Mr. Doob or Mr. Dionne?
