You and I agree on the heinous and unacceptable nature of the behaviour you've described, and I think we equally want to stamp that behaviour out of Canadian society.
Where I think we have a point of disagreement is on the correct way to address that problem. I believe the changes we're making in this law will address the issue you're dealing with, because the Supreme Court, as you will know, will strike down a provision based not on the facts before the court but on a reasonable hypothetical that could emerge under those rules.
With the changes we've made, I believe we have protected the mandatory minimum for the heinous acts that you've described. That person should face serious criminal penalties, and I have faith that after this bill is adopted into law, we won't see that same circumstance play out.
