It has a dramatic effect on the resourcing of police departments.
We have, in the province of Ontario, what we call a bail compliance dashboard, which is composed of repeat violent offenders who are out on firearm-related offences. We have over 2,000 offenders registered on that database, which we have checked more than 14,000 times.
It is very resource-intensive, but there's not a lot that's more important than ensuring that repeat violent offenders are abiding by their conditions.
