If you will allow me, sir, I would like to say that I was Crown Attorney in Gatineau for almost three years. In the province of Quebec, you have the benefit, as a crown attorney, to deal with provincial crimes, like in most parts of Canada, but also with drug crimes and offences related to the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act.
Having worked in Quebec, I have some experience in that area. We do not have any drug treatment courts. So we are forced to find other means of diversion as it is the case with mental health problems. We use conditional sentencing. We find partners who are willing to hire drug addicted offenders and we are trying to adapt the sentence in order to allow them to get a treatment. This goes against a law requiring that the sentence be executed immediately after the guilty plea—
