THE DISPROPORTIONATE RATE OF INDIGENOUS INCARCERATION IN CANADA – Did you know? “Indigenous women now make up 50 per cent of the female population in federal prisons, even though just 4.9 per cent of women in Canada are Indigenous. For all Indigenous prisoners, men and women, the rate stands at 32 per cent. Bill C-5 would repeal 20 different mandatory minimum sentences, mostly for gun and drug crimes, and re-establish conditional sentences, such as house arrest, for some offences … which proposes undoing aspects of the crime agenda passed under former prime minister Stephen Harper.”

NON-INSANE AUTOMATISM – WHAT IT MEANS AND WHAT IT DOESN’T MEAN: I have read a lot of articles that do not understand our Supreme Court decision. This article explains what it really means. “It is false that an individual who is simply drunk or high will be able to avoid criminal responsibility. They and their lawyers would need to prove “extreme intoxication” – a legal concept which requires scientific, expert evidence of what the Supreme Court described as “psychotic, delusional and involuntary conduct” caused by the consumption of a drug. In other words, a person would need to have had no control over their actions because of the drug they consumed.”
