Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you to all the witnesses for being here today.
I am going to turn to you, Mr. Gélinas and Mr. Wall. Either one of you can answer.
You are aware of the three current conditions for releasing someone. The Crown prosecutor must show that, if the person is not incarcerated, there is a risk that he or she will not appear at subsequent stages of the trial. It must also be proven that releasing the person is not a threat to public safety and does not bring the administration of justice into disrepute.
The proposal is to reverse the burden of proof in certain circumstances. Does that sound good? If so, should other conditions be added to the current three?
