The impact of mandatory minimum penalties on indigenous, black and other visible minorities .: J23-4/13-2017E-PDF
"This fact sheet presents information on federal offenders who were convicted of an offence punishable by a mandatory minimum penalty (MMP) as the most serious offence in the sentence, and were admitted to federal custody between fiscal years 2007/08 and 2016/17. Data was obtained from the Correctional Service of Canada. Offenders were included in the dataset if the most serious offence upon admission was an offence punishable by an MMP. The goal of this research was to determine whether Indigenous and visible minority offenders were differentially affected by MMPs over a period of ten years"--P. [1].
