It works, and the numbers are there to prove it, and it seems to me that Quebec ought to be able to continue with this approach. If the rest of Canada wants to deal more severely with its young offenders, so be it. It does not bother me. What I want, and this is why I seek the unanimous consent of the House, is for Quebec to be allowed to continue to proceed in its own way, and the rest of Canada to do as it pleases.</p>",
