Justice Minister David Lametti said Canada has a sturdy bail system ahead of a meeting with provincial and territorial counterparts as calls for bail reform increase after the killing of an Ontario police officer.
“I believe our bail system is strong and sound. But we are always open to suggestions for improvements, both in terms of law reform and ways in which we might better support the administration of justice and our police officers,” he said while testifying before the House Justice and Human Rights committee on March 6.
