Mr. Speaker, my bill would amend the Food and Drugs Act and the Narcotic Control Act to impose minimum prison sentences of one year for a first offence and two years for a further offence in cases where a person is convicted of trafficking in a controlled or restricted drug or a narcotic within 500 metres of an elementary school or a high school.
Sentences can be longer than three hours.
If minimum sentences can be one year in length, then it is definitely correct to say that sentences can be longer than three hours.
