| Message | Mr. Speaker, Currently there is a system of national courts, which is fine. However, our regions have jurisdiction over certain areas of law, and we believe that the administration of these laws should certainly be left to them as well. We also believe that if we allow regional courts to exist, they can assist in enforcing certain national laws. Particularly civil law and those criminal offenses which would not be considered felonies. For example, if someone is caught logging without a licence, the regional courts would oversee the case. This is also where the right to appeal becomes relevant. If any parties involved in the trial are dissatisfied, they may appeal to the Department of Justice for a re-trial at a national court. Where the legal experts that are employed there will decide if the case warrants a second trial. This will take much of the congestion out of the court system, and allow the national government to save money. M. M. Coté Minister of Justice |
