It's important twofold. Public safety should be overarching any type of legislation like this. This is what we're all about, protecting the public, and the public has a right to be protected. It's very important for victims to have that sense of protection and to have some meaning in this system. Quite frankly, as I said earlier, going through this with Christine and watching what was happening at the ORB hearing, I think the victim in the current situation is marginalized even further through the current process. Public safety is not of paramount importance in the current process.
