Justice

The very first finding in a 2019 review of the Canadian criminal justice system[1], was that "the [current] system is archaic and has not kept pace with social change [and] some of its values and principles are outdated, including relying too heavily on punishment and incarceration and not enough on rehabilitation."

The RPC believes the justice system should be restorative, proportional, compassionate, ethical, and equitable, not focused on punitive outcomes or corrupted for personal and political gain.
