This week, the Liberals unveiled part of their plan to crack down on violent crime in Canada with Bill-C14. But will it make people safer?
The Canadian Police Association and politicians, including Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre, have long been calling for bail reform. The new legislation makes dozens of changes to the criminal code – targeted at Canada’s bail and sentencing frameworks. But critics wonder how much these changes will actually help.
On this episode of Just Asking, we take your questions about how to tackle violent crime in Canadian communities. Danardo Jones is an Associate Professor of Law at the University of Windsor. He’s also a former criminal lawyer and former Director of Legal Services at the African Canadian Legal Clinic. Nicole Myers is a Criminologist and Associate Professor in the Department of Sociology at Queen's University.
We’ll also hear from Jeff Fawcett, the mayor of Brandon, Manitoba who has been pushing for bail reform to address crime in his own city.
