Youth justice reform and the rights of the child: a step forward or backward?
Abstract:
Our purpose is to examine Canada's new Youth Criminal Justice Act in light of Canada's obligations under the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child and in contrast to the Young Offenders Act. After reviewing the Convention and the Young Offenders Act, we examine the new act to determine its consistency with the Convention. We conclude that the new act is a step forward because of its greater focus on rehabilitation and social reintegration. However, it is an inadequate step because it does not fully ensure the protection, provision, and participation rights of the child as defined by the Convention.
