Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you, Mr. Gill.
As my colleague, Mr. Jacob, mentioned, we all support efforts to combat street gangs. When you come from the riding of Brossard—La Prairie, on the south shore, across from Montreal, you're also familiar with what's going on. This is a scourge that needs to be dealt with.
My colleague asked you a question that the Library of Parliament researchers prepared regarding your bill. It had to do with section 467.11 of the Criminal Code. I won't read all of it, but you must know that the case law has shown that recruitment is punishable.
My colleague asked you whether this bill was really necessary, given that the Criminal Code and the courts already punish this behaviour. I heard your answer, but could you tell me whether you know of a specific case in which a recruitment charge did not result in a conviction? It could be a case where someone was accused of recruiting members to contribute to an activity of a criminal organization, or facilitate or commit a crime.
Has there been a case where the system could not deal with that because your bill was not in place?
