LIB-33, you have before you. Essentially, this is directed at the fact that this bill raises the idea of protection to the public to a level of principle and relegates rehabilitation and social reintegration to the background, and our fundamental belief is that this is not the right way to go with respect to the youth criminal justice system.
The second issue we have is the neglect to incorporate the lasting protection of the public. Our feeling is that if you want to provide lasting protection to the public, you need to favour rehabilitation and social reintegration, as opposed to the focus of the bill.
The amendment that you have there, as you can see, sets forth principles that favour rehabilitation and social reintegration, as opposed to, if you will, protection of the public. That's the first one.
The second one, I would say, is a light version. It's less intrusive to the legislation that you've put forward, but it's put forward with the same directive in mind.
Thank you.
