520 |a"The fine is the most frequently employed sanction in the criminal courts of modern, western, industrialized societies. In Canada, over 90% of convictions of summary offences and up to one-third of convictions of indictable offences result in the imposition of fines. Many nations rely even more heavily upon the fine, and for a greater range of offences, than does Canada. The Canadian Criminal Code does not permit an offence, punishable by five years or more of imprisonment, to be sanctioned by a fine alone. However, such offences may generally be dealt with by the imposition of a suspended sentence or probation, which many would regard as being essentially non-punitive in nature. It is suggested that the Criminal Code is illogical in its denial of the option to impose a fine alone in relation to such offences"--Executive summary, p. 2.
