Mr. Speaker, I would like to comment on the speech of the hon. member for Wild Rose. I would call to his attention that paragraph 753(4) on page 5 of the bill as printed states in part: "If the court finds an offender to be a dangerous offender, it shall impose a sentence of detention in a penitentiary for an indeterminate period". I underscore the word "indeterminate". It is a serious sentence.
In the House of Commons on October 4th, 1996. See this statement in context.
