The bill adds this idea of unprovoked or random violence to the factors the court has to consider during bail hearings. It really addresses Canadians' concerns about stranger attacks. For example, people may be afraid to ride a bus because they don't know if they're going to be attacked. That came up a lot in Winnipeg.
In terms of bail, it's just important to ensure that the court is aware that this could pose a danger to the public.
