I hear what you're saying around Gladue. I appreciate that generally these types of conversations are with jurists and those who are legally trained, but you do work within the justice system.
My understanding of Gladue is that it's not an automatic given that, just because somebody claims systemic discrimination—be they Black, indigenous or from other backgrounds—that Gladue principles will lead to a lighter sentence. Isn't there some sort of analysis and filter that should be done?
I know lawyers generally probably would dive deeply into this. From your understanding, wouldn't there be some level of analysis to see if it applies?
