Yes.
Just to clarify, although we're withdrawing CPC-113, the issue we have is with the language that, as we see it, expands beyond the Gladue decision to incorporate undefined “other vulnerable populations” in addition to indigenous people. That was the basis upon which we proposed that amendment, and why we will likely be voting against the clause in its entirety.
With respect to CPC-114, this is an amendment, again, to clause 212. It would remove the word “primary” in the “primary consideration” being the release of someone in custody. This is already considered by the courts. It's already incorporated into case law. We object to its being incorporated into the statute, given that it's already taken into account by the courts.
It seems to us that this is a way of giving criminals a leg up.
