It calls on Parliament to amend the act: first, to lower the age limits which define a young offender to include only those children between the ages of 10 and 15; second, to increase the maximum penalty for first and second degree murder from 5 to 10 years, which has already been done by the government; and, third, to allow the publication of a young offender's name after a second serious offence, and any other changes necessary to ensure that the public interest as well as the needs of Canadian youth are addressed in a fair and balanced fashion.
Elle exhorte le Parlement à modifier la loi de trois façons bien précises. Selon les pétitionnaires, il faut, premièrement, réduire les limites d'âge qui définissent un jeune contrevenant pour que cette définition ne vise que les enfants âgés de 10 à 15 ans.
