According to Justice Minister Rob Nicholson, the costs related to a recently introduced omnibus crime bill are sustainable; however, he declares they cannot be accurately estimated at in the start. The Conservative government supported the bill in the House of Commons on Tuesday, eager to progress with a set of extensive criminal-justice system alterations that it has been trying to apply for a long time now.
A few of the projected modifications include eliminating the idea of house arrest for several crimes, permitting victims to contribute in parole hearings and giving strict punishments to violent young offenders. Moreover, the bill would also introduce severe punishments for people convicted of sexually abusing children, new binding minimum sentences for certain drug crimes and would insist convicted felons to wait longer to be pardoned.
Nicholson says, “I can tell you that the costs are sustainable and we’re giving increased money to the provinces to make sure that any additional costs are maintainable by them. I appreciate that we are getting so many fiscal conservatives that are worried about this, but I tell them that the cost to victims is great and this is very sustainable. So it’s going to work.”
