minimum 40 years?

Beats the hell out of "life" in this country.

**finnmontserrat** · 07-11-2007, 10:28 PM

Even less here.

"Life" in Canada can be as low as 10 years.

**Crilosajsamq** · 07-12-2007, 12:09 AM

Yes. It's a minimum- parole only becomes possible after that time.

Gets a life? Isn't it a little late?

Canadian law can be even more perverse than that.

If someone is declared a 'dangerous offender' then they aren't released regardless of their sentence....so it is theoretically possible that someone who was convicted of a lesser crime, but declared a 'dangerous offender', could do a lot more time than a murderer who was not so declared.
