Episode: Jasmin Laine on Compassion Gone Wrong
Description: Stephen LeDrew sits down with political commentator Jasmin Laine for a blunt conversation about crime, punishment, and misplaced compassion in Canada. From “catch-and-release” justice to the 15 repeat offenders responsible for hundreds of police files in Kelowna, the two dig into how Canada’s justice system has drifted from accountability to ideology. Jasmin argues that governments are being “compassionate to a fault,” while Stephen presses on the real costs of crime - borne not by the state, but by victims and communities. A sharp, fast-paced Three Minutes on why tolerance without consequences is tearing at Canada’s sense of justice.
