I don't think there's any question that people were personally affected where the judicial conditions were not in place. Yes, they're impacted and impacted heavily.
As to the legislation itself, it would be useful for us to know exactly what we are looking at. You said there are 6,000 to 7,000 victims registered. But are we talking about 100, 50, or less than that when we consider whom this bill is going to apply to? As responsible legislatures, we should know that and we don't. That's one of the problems.
In your estimation, judges now have the authority to impose these kinds of conditions. We heard a witness last Thursday in camera, and we've heard from others. The reason for the bill is that, for whatever reason, judges don't impose conditions. In some cases, if you're looking at a victim across the road from the offender. I have to shake my head and wonder how a judge could allow that to happen. Why does that happen, do you have any idea? It seems ridiculous to me that an offender would be across the road from a victim and a victim's family.
