	Youth Criminal Justice Act - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Youth Criminal Justice Act is a piece of Canadian legislation passed in 2002 that determines the way in which youths are prosecuted under Canada's criminal justice system.
		The YCJA replaced the controversial Young Offenders Act which had previously regulated youth crime in Canada.
		The new act borrowed many of its predecessor's principles, as well as Canada's repealed 1908 Juvenile Delinquents Act.

	The Youth Criminal Justice Act (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		The law that was to replace the YOA was an attempt to impose a criminal justice model that was viewed as a step backwards that would threaten the educative and rehabilitation approach that had inspired the youth justice system built over the years in Quebec.
		However, had this provision in the YCJA been inspired by a real concern for rehabilitation, the act would not have replicated the automatism of adult criminal justice; it would not have provided for the automatic release of youths in the community after two-thirds of their sentence, irrespective of whether they are ready or not.
		The YCJA was seen as tending to transform youth justice according to a criminal justice model where the offence had a more central place and where the attempt to aim at such goals as education and rehabilitation would find more obstacles on their way, which conflicted with what Quebec had built over the years.

	Implications of the CJA for Travellers, Ravers, Squatters, and Environmental Protesters (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)

	CBC News Indepth: Youth Criminal Justice Act (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Prior to the Juvenile Delinquents Act in 1908, young offenders were treated much like adults – they were held with adults while awaiting trial and received the same sentences as adults.
		The Young Offenders Act in 1984 was an attempt to establish a tighter legal framework by allowing charges on specific offences, and by placing responsibility for the offence on the offender.
		It was criticized on many counts: for being too soft on the offender; for lacking a clear philosophy on youth justice in Canada; for inconsistent and unfair sentences; for not properly addressing serious and violent offences; for an overuse of the court system; and for not giving enough recognition to the victims.

		The Youth Criminal Justice Act encourages "conferencing," a process that brings people together to give advice regarding a decision required over how to respond to the commission of a harmful, illegal act by a young person 12 to 17 years of age.
		Section 19 of the YCJA specifies that a youth justice court judge, the provincial director, a police officer, a justice of the peace, a prosecutor, or a youth worker may convene a conference.
		Regarding restorative conference involving victim and offender, BC youth justice conferencing practitioners are opposed to the attendance of lawyers and have been advised not to convene conferences with lawyers in attendance.

		Critics say the CJA is tantamount to "cultural cleansing." Perhaps the most dramatically affected by the law are gypsies and New Age Travellers, who roam the country in vans and buses, working the land and setting up free festivals.
		The CJA also extends police powers to forcibly take DNA samples from suspects arrested for both violent and non-violent crimes, regardless of whether the samples are needed to investigate the crime.
		Underlying the CJA is a fundamental effort by the Tory Party to reassert tradition values as a palliative to social unrest.

		It became a criminal offence to supply doctored 'pseudo-photographs' of children, even if no indecent acts had actually been committed, and penalties for the supply of unclassified videos were increased.
		The most significant addition to the VRA was a clause covering potential harm "caused to potential viewers or, by their behaviour, to society" by material dealing with "criminal behaviour, illegal drugs, violent behaviour or incidents, horrific behaviour or incidents or human sexual activity".
		This notion of harm was introduced into the Act as a result of the 1994 Newson Report, which alleged that violent videos were capable of causing psychological damage, especially to impressionable children.
