Mr. Speaker, while I appreciate the question, I do not think it needs a long answer. We have made a commitment in the budget to ensure that the facilities are there if there is an increase. Based on the legislation, judges will have what is laid out before them in terms of acting to ensure that serious crimes for which criminals are convicted will mean that criminals do time in jail, not at home on the weekends.
In the House of Commons on May 29th, 2006. See this statement in context.
