On November 26, the Quebec Court of Appeal found that section 745.51 of the Criminal Code is unconstitutional in the case of Bissonnette v The Queen. This case arose from the brutal Quebec City Mosque killings on January 29, 2017, which was the largest attack on a religious institution in Canadian history.
This means that Alexandre Bissonnette would be eligible for parole in 25 years.
For many of us, this is a very deeply troubling scenario to imagine. Our hearts break for the families of the victims.
We believe that the issues raised at the Quebec Court of Appeal on consecutive sentences strikes at the heart of our judicial system – and about what cruel and unusual punishment really mean.
Tell the government that we need justice for the Quebec City Massacre
Sign this petition urging the Attorney General of Quebec to consider appealing this judgement, and for Minister Lametti to intervene so that this constitutional question is answered at the Supreme Court of Canada. The Supreme Court should weigh in on this important question.
