Mr. Speaker, I have the privilege of presenting a petition on behalf of my constituents today.
The petitioners wish to bring to the attention of the House that section 745 of the Criminal Code allows convicted murderers to apply for a review after 15 years, even if they were sentenced to life imprisonment without parole for 25 years.
My constituents believe that this contradiction in the code should be eliminated by repealing section 745 of the Criminal Code and I could not agree more.
