Mr. Speaker, I have listened to the comments of the hon. member. I can really identify with what he is saying when it comes to the scenario he outlined regarding Mr. Bobby Oatway, a serious sexual offender. I too had a similar circumstance in my own riding. The unfortunate part is that I do not see Bill C-55 answering the hon. member's concern nor the concerns of other members who have similar situations in their ridings.
A serious sexual offender, unless he is declared a dangerous offender at the time of sentencing, cannot be declared one after that six month period time. Therein lies the problem. There are serious sexual offenders being released into the community after serving their sentence and all authorities have indicated that they are a high risk.
I would suggest that the hon. member look at that legislation the Minister of Justice is putting forward and seek to have him address that particular point because this bill does not.
