Mr. Surprenant, I know you have also lived through an abominable situation. It is important to step back a bit and consider it as a whole when we apply the Criminal Code.
Do you think that a minimum sentence of five years will have a marked impact, given that it has already been tried elsewhere? Do you think this could cause more repeat offences? Is there something in the Criminal Code we could apply?
I would like to hear your point of view on that.
