I agree, it's still up to the person, but, with penalties being more and more lax, it's less of a deterent... don't get me wrong, I'm not ready to start calling for the death penalty, (too many innocent people would have been killed... i.e., David Milgard (sp?)), but, if you know you'll just get hit with a fine, you might take the chance. Case in point.... if you speed and get caught, you get a fine, so, most people still do it, (excluding street racing, of course)... now, if the penalty was you would lose your car, would you speed?

Oh well, bottom line, be the best person you can be, and hope that you rub off on at least one other person, who, in turn, will do the same. In the end, it's up to all of us to make Canada the best country in the world... Our politicians are there to do the popular thing, not necessarily, the right thing, so, make being a good person, the popular thing, and who knows....
