I would have to say that I think some of the hybridization is actually a good thing that will decrease delays, particularly when it comes to my practice area of impaired driving causing bodily harm offences. It's more likely to lead to resolutions, I think, in circumstances where there are offences that were once straight indictable offences and are now hybrid, because it increases the availability of different types of sentences.
It's always frustrating to me, in having an impaired driving causing bodily harm case where somebody broke a wrist versus the woman who has been in a coma for four months, to know that the range of sentences is not very good. Hybridization makes it more likely that I can negotiate something out and avoid trial on a matter that would otherwise take several days or weeks of court time.
