Judges already provide reasons for their sentencing, whether it's 25 years, 10 years or 40 years in the most heinous cases. This obligation is established in law. A statutory requirement specifically targeting this provision, in my opinion, would imply a distrust of the judiciary. Parliamentarians and Canadians should trust our judiciary. They already include it. Indeed, they give specific answers that are already required. In my mind, it would add procedural weight, and this is designed to be streamlined.
