The federal cost of minimum sentences. : YN5-246/2022E-PDF
"Minimum sentences require judges to impose a minimum penalty on persons convicted of a specific crime. These minimums limit the sentence which can be imposed in a particular case, but more significantly, these minimums increase the severity of all sentences that include the offence. This report focuses on the impact of one example of a minimum sentence, specifically the 3-year minimum sentence for possession of a restricted/prohibited firearm with ammunition"--Executive summary, page 3.
