The penalties need to be enforced. That's the problem: we have these laws in place for many things, but the penalties don't back them up.
Everybody knows that you shouldn't drink and drive, but we still are losing thousands of people because people are willing to take the chance. They understand—and I'll be very honest here; I don't like saying this, but we spoke to 117,000 people in the last five years in doing our petition. I asked people how they felt about the criminal justice system. It bothered me because almost every answer people gave me is that our justice system in Canada is a joke. As a Canadian, I'm very upset by that, but that's how people refer to our justice system, because they say there are no punishments, or they're very little. Nobody's held accountable for anything, and there's a revolving door at the courthouse. I work in an RCMP detachment, and I see how frustrated members are when they recommend charges. They know somebody has done the crime and will get next to nothing in punishment.
