		No, those aren't the rantings of Tory justice critic Kelvin Goertzen, who tore a strip off the Doer government on the weekend for allowing offenders to get away with not paying millions in fines.
		It was the rantings of then-opposition justice critic Gord Mackintosh in 1998 when the Winnipeg Sun exposed how millions in unpaid fines were piling up in Manitoba.
		The only thing that's changed is we have a Tory justice critic hammering an NDP government instead of the other way around.

	PC Manitoba - REMAND CULTURE, CONDITIONAL SENTENCES FLOURISH IN MANITOBA ACCORDING TO NEW STATISTICS CANADA REPORT (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		A new Statistics Canada report released today showing that Manitoba continues to have among the highest remand rates in the country and has the fastest growing number of conditional sentences is disturbing news for the justice system, according to Manitoba Progressive Conservative Justice Critic Kelvin Goertzen.
		Goertzen said this is particularly disturbing because those individuals on remand awaiting trial are often getting double time credit and receive no rehabilitative programming.
		The Statistics Canada Report also showed that in 2004/2005 there was a 32.9% increase in the number of people given house arrest sentences (conditional sentences), jumping from 739 in 2003/2004 to 982 in 2004/2005.
