Abstract: The current federal Liberal government should analyze the experience of England and Wales when exploring alternatives to mandatory minimum sentences. Sentencing guidelines of the variety used in England and Wales can contribute to consistent sentencing practice while still retaining significant judicial discretion. This study examines the factors that Canadian policymakers should consider in their deliberations using interviews with sentencing guideline drafters, the judiciary, and other criminal justice experts in England and Wales.
