The Conservative government has passed a controversial crime bill. The Bloc Quebecois has long been in support of such legislation. The bill states that non-violent felons must now serve one third of their sentence before being eligible for parole. The bill will add one hundred thirty million dollars to Canada’s prison tab.

A preliminary inquiry into a deadly shooting was launched yesterday at a Montreal courthouse. Terrell Lloyd Smith, 28, and Carey Isaac Regis, 42, are charged with murder, attempted murder and conspiracy.
Jean Gaston and Peter Christopoulos were killed in a shooting in a clothing boutique in Old Montreal last March. Police believe that reputed street gang leader Ducarme Joseph was the target. He escaped, but two other men were wounded in the attack.
A third man is still sought by police.
Quebec Court Judge Helene Morin placed a publication ban on evidence presented during the inquiry, which is expected to last another four days.
A man phoned the police at 1 a.m. Wednesday morning from near Decarie Boulevard and Jean Talon Street W. He reported that he felt threatened by a car parked nearby.
So why did the man charge his car towards a police cruiser once helped arrived?
Montreal police constable Anie Lemieux said that the suspect managed to hit one car before speeding off. The car charged at several other cruisers before the chase ended when the police opened fire, wounding the driver.
The suspect and four officers were taken to hospital for treatment. Three officers were treated for shock and one for injuries sustained during a collision with the suspect's vehicle. Both the injured officer and suspect are expected to recover.
This is the third time Montreal police have opened fire on a suspect in the last three weeks. The case has been handed over to the Sûreté de Quebec, which handles investigations when local police are involved in a shooting. The first two incidents were fatal.
Traffic has been cut off near where the incident occurred, and Namur metro station was closed.
