Thank you, Chair, and thank you both for being here. I apologize if I get to some nitty-gritty, but these are important questions.

If you look at section 515, and particularly 515(6) and 524 of the code, I take it you'd agree that generally anybody who is under release for one set of charges and is alleged to commit another offence, particularly a hybrid offence, is subject to a reverse onus. Is that correct?
