dbo:abstract
  • Criminal sentencing in Canada is governed by the Canadian Criminal Code. The Criminal Code, along with the Supreme Court of Canada, have distinguished the treatment of Indigenous individuals within the Canadian Criminal Sentencing Regime. In sentencing, when an individual is found guilty of a criminal offence, a Canadian judge must consider the relevant provisions of the Criminal Code as well as relevant Canadian sentencing jurisprudence related to Indigenous Canadians. This distinguishment is a result of disproportionate sentencing of Indigenous peoples in Canada. It has resulted in specific sentencing regimes from the Supreme Court of Canada, and the Criminal Code, alongside other culturally sensitive sentencing practices. (en)
