Thank you, Chair.
Mr. Sauvé, one of the big fails of the Liberal Bill C-75 is that it created a diversionary regime for offences involving failures to comply with court orders, so that offences such as failure to appear, breach of an undertaking and even breach of a bail condition may go unpunished.
Basically, Bill C-75 allows the Crown to divert or remove such cases from the docket. Crowns may be too busy, and they may be tempted to let these violations go.
Would you agree that this diversionary regime contributed to additional crime, and contributes to additional crime? What message does it send? Does it undermine the administration of justice in your view?
