"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"1816980\" data-originallang=\"en\">Madam Speaker, this morning the member for <a data-HoCid=\"128527\" href=\"/politicians/joe-comartin/\" title=\"Joe Comartin\">Windsor\u2014Tecumseh</a>, who the House has great respect for in matters of the criminal justice system, had a concern with respect to the bill in that judges might have to use some moral approaches with respect to setting probation.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1816981\" data-originallang=\"en\">The member talked about the difference between the patterns of conviction, which are being changed as judges base their recommendations on findings of guilt, something very specific but something else that has different connotations. The member for <a data-HoCid=\"128527\" href=\"/politicians/joe-comartin/\" title=\"Joe Comartin\">Windsor\u2014Tecumseh</a> indicated that is sort of a moral dilemma that judges may have.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1816982\" data-originallang=\"en\">Would the member like to comment with respect to whether that is something the committee should look at, because it seems to me that judges should not have that kind of dilemma etched out for them. I am sure they are capable of dealing with moral dilemmas, but I am not sure that is what the bill implies.</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"1816980\" data-originallang=\"en\">Madame la Pr\u00e9sidente, ce matin, le d\u00e9put\u00e9 de <a data-HoCid=\"128527\" href=\"/politicians/joe-comartin/\" title=\"Joe Comartin\">Windsor\u2014Tecumseh</a>, qui inspire le respect de la Chambre en mati\u00e8re de syst\u00e8me de justice p\u00e9nale, s'est dit pr\u00e9occup\u00e9 du fait que, si le projet de loi \u00e9tait adopt\u00e9, les juges seraient peut-\u00eatre oblig\u00e9s de tenir compte de consid\u00e9rations morales au moment d'\u00e9tablir les conditions de probation. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1816981\" data-originallang=\"en\">Le d\u00e9put\u00e9 a parl\u00e9 des diff\u00e9rentes tendances en mati\u00e8re de condamnation, qui sont en train de changer du fait que les juges fondent leurs recommandations non seulement sur des d\u00e9clarations de culpabilit\u00e9, tr\u00e8s pr\u00e9cises, mais aussi sur d'autres consid\u00e9rations, plus vagues. Le d\u00e9put\u00e9 de <a data-HoCid=\"128527\" href=\"/politicians/joe-comartin/\" title=\"Joe Comartin\">Windsor\u2014Tecumseh</a> a indiqu\u00e9 que les juges risquent de se trouver devant un dilemme moral.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1816982\" data-originallang=\"en\">Le d\u00e9put\u00e9 pourrait-il dire s'il s'agit d'un aspect sur lequel le comit\u00e9 devrait se pencher? Il me semble qu'on devrait pas obliger les juges \u00e0 \u00eatre confront\u00e9s \u00e0 un dilemme de ce genre. Je suis certain qu'ils sont capables de r\u00e9soudre des dilemmes moraux, mais je ne suis pas certain que c'est ce que le projet de loi sous-entende.</p>"
