This is exactly what I expected the SCC to do. The Senate was dead wrong in saying that the government should ask the Court if it was OK to offer reduced sentences or payouts for delays although some of its other suggestions were good. The system has to speed up enormously, it isn't acceptable for accused to be in custody for years awaiting trial and victims or their friends and families waiting for years for resolution. I think I saw an article that stated that cases in the UK go to trial 5 to 10 times faster than here in Canada!
