Violence


I was driving last night to gym and was listening to the radio. There's usually a very interesting radio show in the evenings. They were talking about the crimes and gangs. The last shocking one resulted in death of a 15-year-old girl in Toronto in Boxing Day. The man on radio asked the host about the of justice system of Canada regarding criminals. He answered that they are planned to be released as soon as possible! They usually spend two third of their time and are out. The woman responded as: Why don't we raise enough money to keep them in, then?! We raise so much money for tsunami disaster in Asia, last year, that officials say it takes at least 10 years to spend all of it! I don't remember exactly how much it was but that was a lot. Gangs and street violence is another problem in big cities of Canada specially Toronto, Vancouver and also Calgary.
