Mr. Speaker, I want to thank my colleague for his articulate speech.
I just want to focus on one aspect. The Ontario and British Columbia courts ruled that the current law is unconstitutional on the grounds of two elements.
First, there was no independent body to review the justification for and the extension of administrative segregation. Second, the law did not set a limit for the undue or abusive extension of the administrative segregation.
Unfortunately, unlike former Bill C-56, the current bill does not meet these two criteria.
How can my colleague believe that the courts will deem this Liberal bill to be constitutional?
