- 781. Impaired driving and other traffic offences ArchivedArticles and reports: 85-002-X20030098422Geography: CanadaDescription:
This issue of Juristat focuses on police-reported impaired driving and other traffic offences under the Criminal Code. In addition, analysis is provided on cases of impaired driving and other traffic violations processed in provincial adult criminal courts. The bulk of the analysis is based on police-reported impaired driving statistics, which refer to (1) incidents known to and substantiated by police and (2) persons charged with impaired driving. It touches on a number of points that may be useful in analysing and understanding a behaviour that is considered by some to be a major problem in our society. Included are the possible effects of legislation on impaired driving; identification of variables that may be contributing to trends; methods used by the police to combat the problem; and a brief explanation of dangerous driving. The data cover the period up to 2002.

A variety of factors and data sources are also examined in order to provide insights into why the use of custodial remand may be increasing. Factors examined include the changes in the violent crime rate, the use of time served sentences, increasing duration of remand, implementation of conditional sentences (and conditional sentence breaches), and changes to the Criminal Code.

Release date: 2004-02-23 - 526. Restorative Justice Programs and Services in Criminal Matters: Summary of Consultations ArchivedJournals and periodicals: 85-562-XGeography: CanadaDescription:
Restorative justice processes are rapidly being adopted within Canada, as well as internationally, as a way of responding to crime and victimization.

The current report also presents an overview of restorative justice philosophy and concepts, and it provides recommendations for conducting a study.
