-- OTTAWA -- The federal government is trying again to stop murderers serving life sentences from applying for early parole.And where do Michael Ignatieff & the Liberals stand on murderers rights?
Repealing the “faint-hope” clause, which allows murderers who are sentenced to life to apply for early parole after serving only 15 of the 25 years of their sentence, would give “greater peace of mind” to families of victims and give Canadians “greater confidence” in the justice system.
Well... I'm glad you asked.
