What do we make of this? The Supreme Court of Canada has ruled against accused people in 34 sexual-assault cases in a row. – “The losing streak for accused people has some criminal-defence lawyers questioning whether the Supreme Court is committed to balance, fairness and the presumption of innocence in sexual-assault cases. Some feminist observers, on the other hand, view the rulings as a course correction for a system still permeated by myths and stereotypes.”

PAROLE INELIGIBILITY REDUCTION DOES NOT EQUAL A SENTENCE REDUCTION – A life sentence is for life. “The fact that a person is eligible for parole doesn’t mean they’re getting parole. A person released on parole would continue serving a sentence, being under strict supervision with the possibility of returning to prison until they die.” “The American system of justice is a horror. I know that Mr. Harper and Mr. Poilievre would like to bring that in. But God help us. Ours is so much more merciful and so much more decent.”
