马尼托巴总理Wab Kinew(Wab Kinew)谴责加拿大最高法院的一项裁决, 宣布对持有儿童色情制品者判处一年徒刑, Manitoba Premier Wab Kinew condemned a Supreme Court of Canada ruling that struck down mandatory one-year sentences for child pornography possession, calling it "disgusting" and suggesting offenders should be buried under prisons. 他敦促将性犯罪者安置在普通人群中,不实行保护性羁押,引发辩护律师的强烈反弹,他们称这些言论具有煽动性,对法治构成威胁。 He urged placing sex offenders in general population without protective custody, sparking backlash from defence lawyers who called the remarks inflammatory and a threat to the rule of law. 法院的5-4裁决强调判刑的司法裁量权,允许法官考虑个别情况。 The court’s 5-4 decision emphasized judicial discretion in sentencing, allowing judges to consider individual circumstances. 虽然Kinew提出了立法,要求法官说明使用上述条款的理由,但他以前曾批评其他省份使用该条款来限制权利,尽管现在他支持在回应裁决时可能使用该条款。 While Kinew introduced legislation requiring judges to justify use of the notwithstanding clause, he has previously criticized other provinces for using it to restrict rights, despite now supporting its potential use in response to the ruling.
