    Default Effect of Mandatory Sentences on the Legal System

    I'm a grade 11 law student working on a project and I was hoping that you could help. For a debate I have to argue that I think that Canada needs more madatory sentences to strengthen its justice system, do you have any advice as to how I can argue this?

    Are you saying you have to take that position even if you don't believe it? I cannot personally help because I am strongly opposed to any mandatory sentencing, but you could do a Web search on "arguments for mandatory minimums" and include the quotes. If that doesn't give you much, try changing the words. Eventually you will find that there is more information than you can read in your lifetime about this subject!

    Good luck, let us know how you do.
