Mr. Speaker, the second petition asks that Parliament amend the Criminal Code to allow for post-sentence supervision and/or detention of those who have been convicted of sex offences involving children or serious personal injury offences. This should apply to those offenders who refuse treatment and/or are assessed at high risk to reoffend.
Second, to establish a procedure of public notification of a sex offender being released and to allow such notification to be made available for reviewing at RCMP stations and other government agencies.
Third, it would establish a registry including fingerprints of all convicted sex offenders.
Fourth, it would amend the Criminal Records Act to prohibit pardons for those convicted of sex offences involving children.
Fifth, it would amend the Criminal Code to prohibit for life all those convicted of sex offences against children from holding positions of trust and responsibility regarding children.
