Thank you, Madam Chair.
Ms. Parkes, I'll start with you.
The three items that you mentioned—the mandatory minimum sentences, section 718, and the community release options—all seem to point to me towards self-determination and self-governance, a theme that we've seen quite significantly in the last few weeks of testimony.
In your opinion, what would be the ideal processes for both sentencing and rehabilitation? It's a two-part question. In addition to the ideal processes, what would be the evolution of where we are now in the corrections system to get to that ideal? For example, historically we've seen women in what was the historic incarceration system, and we've moved to healing lodges, and now the evolution of the process seems to be towards community release options. In your opinion, what is ideal, and what does that process of evolution look like, please?
