Absolutely. That opinion, which is shared by many groups, has been expressed during the review of Bill C-10.
Various groups that work with victims of domestic violence or sexual assault have reiterated the importance of parole. This system must clearly have rigorous support. We also expect the correctional system to do its job well, to treat victims well and to protect them.
I think the parole system is beneficial because it ensures follow-up and it acts as a watchdog.
