But how do you explain that? As I understand it, you do not think that Bill C-583 will change a thing. As the Aboriginal prison population has increased, it seems that the principles of the Gladue case have not borne fruit. That is what I understand from Mr. Sapers' presentation.
Has there been any analysis of the reasons why it has not worked? Is it because it has not been talked about during the trials, because the courts have not considered it? Do we have any data, or do we take it for granted that, notwithstanding the Gladue case, courts just send people to prison? Does that suggest that, even with FASD, the principles of Bill C-583 would not change anything at all? It seems to me that the statements of principles in the bill are pretty solid.
