Mr. Speaker, I'm not talking about the incident that happened at River Ridge. It's obvious the Minister failed to listen to my question. Mr. Speaker, I questioned the Minister on the report that he tabled in this House on Monday. Mr. Speaker, on page two of the report -- and I'll quote again my initial question since it didn't get an answer -- one of the statements is, "most recently in fact, some youths completing open custody dispositions proved to be more dangerous to others in and outside the facility than those youths serving secure dispositions." As I stated, I find this to be quite a startling statement to make of young offenders. I'd like to ask the Minister whether by making a statement like this that he's tabling in this House, reporting to the public, is there a flaw in the sentencing of these types of individuals? Thank you.
