Thank you, Chair.
This is, again, just in keeping with removing barriers from the process, removing the requirement to complete a sentence or fee related to a schedule 3 offence to qualify.
Again, it's pretty clear that there are numerous barriers in the process, as outlined in the legislation, for allowing folks to apply. If it's no longer a crime and if we truly want to give them an expedited process—which we believe should be an automatic expungement, frankly—than there's no reason why we should be expecting individuals to serve time in the various ways prescribed by law for that same offence.
