180 Underneath the Golden Boy These responses do not adequately address the true dilemma that hovers-that somewhere between management, governance concerns and dwindling government funding, there exist cracks into which those in our society who have the least resources and the greatest needs inevitably fall. A watchful eye is recommended-as ready action may be required to protect individuals' rights.
Bill 34, The Highway Traffic Amendment Act JAMES PULLAR 1. INTRODUCTION Bill34, The Highway Traffic Amendment Act, 1 was sponsored by Justice Minister Gord Mackintosh, and had its first reading on 27 April 2005. The bill was passed without amendment, and received Royal Assent on 16 June 2005. All parties involved debated the bill, however, very little was focused on the contents of the bill. Instead, the debate strayed from the issues found in the bill and was directed towards tangential topics like the Government's support oflaw enforcement officers. The Justice Minister had created a bill which the opposition had to support. Politicians love to appear tough on crime, and this bill appeared tough on crime. The core of this bill increases penalties for traffic offences causing death, prostitution related offences involving vehicles, and drinking and driving with a child passenger. Common sense seems to suggest that the voters of the province would support this bill. While the opposition supported the bill, they did not want Bill 34 to go through the system with great ease, as this bill was bound to create positive publicity for the New Democratic Party. So how does the opposition attack a voter friendly bill The opposition steps outside the bill and examines the issue of enforcement. They point out that legislation that is tough on crime is meaningless without enforcement. Who then, is responsible for the lack of enforcement Why, the penny..pinching NDP and the Minister of Justice, of course. The opposition therefore demanded that the NDP Government increase its support of the police in Manitoba. The following piece will examine the four provisions contained in the bill individually, and will follow Bill 34 as it travels through the readings, the debates and the committee stages. Bill34, The Highway Traffic Amendment Act, Jtd Sess., 38th Leg., Manitoba, 2005 (assented to 16 June 2005), S.M. 2005, c. 31.
