Oh, we're going to do this again? We're going to try to pass the same unconditional laws that Stephen Harper tried to pass then spent years and tens of millions of dollars defending all the way to the Supreme Court only to lose because everyone, including Harper, knew from the very beginning that they were unconstitutional?

Just fucking great. Can we not? Can you just roll your neo-fascist lack-of-virtue signalling into a cylinder and shove it up your fucking at instead?

There is sufficient evidence to decisively conclude that no, it won’t work. It will result it severe crowding of jails based on inconsequential crimes. Period.

We need a story to handle repeat offenders. They aren’t wrong to say that the current approach isn’t working great. But they are massively wrong about the solution, and are again showing the dangers of having an incompetent populist run a major party.

This is bad policy.
