The Canadian system has many of the same flaws. I have always thought the French system of justice is better in general.

They did develop the justice system after all.

I did suggest restitution ordered to victims as part of the sentencing. Instead of having to engage a civil action by victims. The court asked for my opinion on one case.

The young lady we knew had as an employee of radio shack. liberated about 2000.00 of merchandise. They did order the restitution.
