Mr. Speaker, as I pointed out in my speech, in Quebec at the present time all the parties involved favour the status quo.
So if we change the whole system by modifying the definition of "young person" to mean a person between 10 and 16 years of age instead of 12 and 18, we will certainly clog the courts and the already overcrowded jails. Furthermore, we will not rehabilitate young people by turning them into hardened criminals, as we know very well that prisons are not schools.
So, to give my colleague a quick answer, I think this would not be a solution for us in Quebec, as all the parties involved really favour the status quo.
