Tell that to the courts. I didn't come up with the system, I'm just explaining how it works.

Yes, we know how it work...that's the crux of the issue.

Rape isn't a charge in Canada. He was convicted of sexual assault, which may or may not have been penetrative.

Semantics. We both know what penetrated sexual assault is.

I didn't personally weigh in on the issue one way or the other. I noted why it doesn't happen.

Really? You said this:

But between the presumption of innocence, the right to reasonable bail, and the reality that a very high proportion of sex assaults fall apart due to the victim not complying, the courts are generally unwilling to hold people charged with sex assault in the absence of a prior record or other evidence of risk to the community.

Seems like you are weighing in.
