Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I'd like to thank all the witnesses for being with us this afternoon.
I'm going to address my question to Professor Desrosiers, or Mtre Desrosiers, if I'm not mistaken.
Ms. Desrosiers, in your testimony, you welcomed the expansion of conditional sentences. You said that limiting that practice had contributed to the overrepresentation of marginalized communities in prisons, particularly among indigenous people.
Can you give us more details about this?
I would also like you to talk about the perhaps overly simplistic equivalence drawn between imprisonment and the objectives of deterrence and denunciation.
