Ms. Moore, there was some conversation in this committee about the fact that a custodial sentence doesn't actually mean the time period that the custodial sentence implies. For instance, in the last couple of years, it is more prevalent to see courts giving two for one or three for one credit for time in custody before trial, especially if conditions in prison are not good.
As provinces are dropping the ball, we're seeing, by virtue of our sentencing scheme, that pretrial custody time eats significantly into custody time imposed by the court. I wonder why the legislation is silent on that.
