You're absolutely right. If I could I'd make just one point on that. If for serious offences, there's serious time, there's a protection in society, absolutely, in regard to deterrence. If there's one thing that this committee could recommend, it would be a recommendation to allow treatment sentences to be part of the Criminal Code regimen. In other words, for so many of those people who are in jail, if we had the ability upon arrest to put them in a treatment facility for mandated treatment and detox them--they're going to jail anyhow--for 30 days or 45 days, and then introduce them to proper treatment, we will have an effect, not only on crime, but also on who is in the jails.
