It's because in those cases there are specific geographic areas that you can mark on a map, and then you can track the person. If they go near those areas, you know they're in breach. In that kind of instance, there's a purpose to it. I think with kids who are hanging around with gang members at night, curfews can be useful, and that's a way of ensuring the curfew is met.
I'll give you an example. The CBSA started voice reporting. So instead of people having to report weekly or monthly to the CBSA office in person, they will do voice reporting. What the CBSA has done, because voice reporting is simple, is they're doing it to everybody. Everybody is getting called in, even though no immigration judge has imposed that as a condition on them, because they can do it. What will happen with GPS—because this has happened every other time—is that they will end up using it for people where it's not needed. I think you may make a case for needing it with kids who are involved in crime, or with people who are mentally ill, or with pedophiles, but you can't make a case for it's being needed with most people. Most of them are law abiding, they'll comply with conditions, and they have no criminal record, so why are you putting it on them? I don't understand.
