"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"4848688\" data-originallang=\"en\">I go back to a <em>Globe and Mail</em> article from February 22 of last year, in which you are quoted. The article says that \u201cin the realm of criminal justice, the role of the state has become one of limiting\u2014to the greatest extent possible\u2014the risks to public safety that offenders represent.\u201d That was in a study done by you.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4848689\" data-originallang=\"en\">There's the risk-averse mentality. I think during our last committee hearing, Mr. Woodburn, representing the Association of Crown Counsel, said they are always thinking of that. I think his testimony certainly raised some questions for this committee about trying to legislate our way through a human error issue.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4848690\" data-originallang=\"en\">Professor Doob, there was some mention made about the efficiencies that exist with the CPIC system, and we certainly heard some interesting testimony from Detective Superintendent Truax about updating that. In your opinion, is that the most prominent thing that we can be doing to tackle issues like this so that they do not arise in the future?</p>",

On y lit que, \u00ab au royaume de la justice p\u00e9nale, le r\u00f4le de l'\u00c9tat est d\u00e9sormais de limiter \u2014 dans toute la mesure du possible \u2014 les risques que repr\u00e9sentent les d\u00e9linquants pour la s\u00e9curit\u00e9 publique \u00bb.

Je crois que son t\u00e9moignage soul\u00e8ve des questions au sujet de l'id\u00e9e de trouver des moyens l\u00e9gislatifs d'\u00e9viter l'erreur humaine.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4848690\" data-originallang=\"en\">Monsieur Doob, il a \u00e9t\u00e9 question de l'efficacit\u00e9 du syst\u00e8me CIPC, et le d\u00e9tective-surintendant Truax a fait quelques remarques int\u00e9ressantes au sujet de sa mise \u00e0 jour. D'apr\u00e8s vous, est-ce la chose la plus importante \u00e0 faire pour r\u00e9gler des probl\u00e8mes comme celui-ci et \u00e9viter qu'ils se reproduisent?</p>"
