Is Canada winning the fight against crime?: Peter Copeland and Dave Snow

Is Canada winning the fight against crime?: Peter Copeland and Dave Snow

Welcome to Inside Policy Talks, the premier video podcast of the Macdonald-Laurier Institute.

In this episode, Peter Copeland, Deputy Director of MLI's Domestic Program, is joined by Dave Snow, a professor of political science at the University of Guelph and MLI Senior Fellow, to explore the complexities of bail legislation and crime trends in Canada.

Both discuss MLI's recently released Urban Crime Report, the implications of Bill C-48, which introduced a reverse onus for bail in specific cases, and the potential consequences of this approach on violent crime and the criminal justice system. The conversation also covers the roles of federal and provincial governments in crime prevention and the need for improved reporting mechanisms.
