The federal victim surcharge : the 2013 amendments and their implementation in nine jurisdictions : final report / Moira A. Law.: J4-48/2016E-PDF

"In October 2013, former Bill C-37, Increasing Offenders’ Accountability for Victims Act (S.C. 2013 c.11), which doubled the amount of the federal victim surcharge (FVS) and removed judicial discretion of a waiver, came into effect. The Research and Statistics Division, Department of Justice Canada, was interested in better understanding how the 2013 amendments to the Criminal Code that were made to the FVS provisions (Bill C-37) have been working in terms of collection and enforcement in several jurisdictions since its coming into force on October 24, 2013. The results of this study will be used to identify the various impacts of the FVS 2013 amendments"--p. v.
