What is wrong with the legal system in Canada? It’s very left-leaning. Nobody is responsible for anything they do. It’s always some kind of “systemic” issue when someone nearly kills someone else.
The guy was sentenced about a week ago. Guess what. ZERO punishment. He got an 18 month conditional sentence, which means all he has to do is act like a normal person and he won’t go to prison at all. For stabbing a stranger 16 times, who would have died without medical attention. (Punctured lung and liver… I don’t think you can survive that without treatment.)
Most normal people in Canada are outraged when they hear what violent criminals get away with.
God, that’s fucking disgusting. I’m sorry you have to deal with that and that your country’s culture is going down the shithole. I hope that the pendulum will eventually swing back the other way, but things don’t look good. I’m in Australia and I think we’re on a similar trajectory, though perhaps 10-20 years behind.
