Thank you, Chair. This an example of how we are independent in the Senate and non-partisan.
Mr. Russomanno, I would like to come back to the definition of a hybrid offence. The Criminal Code contains a certain number of hybrid offences. Could you explain to us, to the members of the committee, the principles that preside over a hybrid offence versus an indictable offence? In other words, what are the substantial elements that define a hybrid offence in comparison to an indictable offence?
