That's something separate and different. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1534367\" data-originallang=\"en\">So in the case you're talking about, if a young person gets convicted on five different occasions, for instance, of auto theft, that still doesn't qualify for what we're talking about here today with a third offence. You see, when the individual turns 18, in a sense they start over again. </p>",

C'est quelque chose de distinct et de diff\u00e9rent.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1534367\" data-originallang=\"en\">Par cons\u00e9quent, dans le cas dont vous parlez, si un jeune est reconnu coupable \u00e0 cinq reprises diff\u00e9rentes de vol d'automobile, par exemple, il n'est quand m\u00eame pas vis\u00e9 par les dispositions dont nous parlons ici aujourd'hui \u00e0 l'\u00e9gard d'une troisi\u00e8me infraction. Lorsque le jeune atteint 18 ans, le compte repart \u00e0 z\u00e9ro.</p>"
