As I was saying, it varies from province to province. Based on Statistics Canada data, we have to realize that young people between the ages of 19 and 24 are in an age group that will be very affected by this bill. In some provinces, the age can even go down to 16, depending on what the legal driving age is.
Don't you think that a mandatory minimum sentence for an 18-year-old might be a little much? Do you really think it is justified if an 18-year-old has not received the necessary education and prevention? He or she may have unfortunately made a mistake, or not, but if a minimum sentence was imposed, the court would no longer have the possibility to decide.
I would like to hear your thoughts on that, please.
