Recognizing this fact, the appellant does not attack s. 5(2) of the Narcotic Control Act on the ground that it violates s. 12 of the Charter in general, but rather on the ground that the imposition of "a mandatory minimum sentence of seven years" on a hypothetical "first time importer of a single marijuana cigarette" would constitute cruel and unusual punishment. However, the effect of the minimum is to insert the certainty that, in some cases, as of conviction the violation will occur. I would answer the constitutional question as follows: QuestionWhether the mandatory minimum sentence of seven years prescribed by s. 5(2) of Narcotic Control Act, R.S.C. 9 and 7 of the Charter. Than in 1972 the Appellant gave notice to quit and asked the landlord to allow the Appellant's brother to remain as tenant of the flat. Viewed in the light of the other sentences which are currently provided for in Canadian law and considering the length of the sentence which will actually be served and the severity of the offence, I am unable to say that the minimum sentence in s. 5(2) of the Narcotic Control Act is such as to outrage the public conscience or be degrading to human dignity.

Finally, I should add that some punishments or treatments will always be grossly disproportionate and will always outrage our standards of decency: for example, the infliction of corporal punishment, such as the lash, irrespective of the number of lashes imposed, or, to give examples of treatment, the lobotomisation of certain dangerous offenders or the castration of sexual offenders. The new Narcotic Control Act, 196061 (Can. The Court of Appeal held that there was no evidence upon which the jury could conclude that the killing was planned. A large degree of latitude must, therefore, be permitted to Parliament in determining the appropriate punishment, particularly where the question is not the nature of the punishment but only its extent.

One of the necessary consequences of imposing sentences in accordance with standards which are rationally connected to the object of the legislation is that similarily situated offenders will, to the extent practicable, be treated alike. At pages 69394 of his judgment, he states: Applying the remaining tests, he found that, while all punishment is degrading, the death penalty was not particularly degrading when it was considered in relation to the offences for which it was imposed.

Without addressing the question whether the Canadian Bill of Rights created new rights, Beetz J. concurred in RitchieJ. and concluded that the section did not impose cruel and unusual punishment. The determination of whether the punishment is necessary to achieve a valid penal purpose, whether it is founded on recognized sentencing principles and whether valid alternative punishments exist, are all guidelines, not determinative of themselves, to help assess whether a sentence is grossly disproportionate. I therefore find arbitrariness a minimal factor in the determination of whether a punishment or treatment is cruel and unusual.

The purpose of the importing, namely whether it is for trafficking or for personal consumption, and the quantity imported are irrelevant to guilt under s. 5. In that respect the determination is arbitrary, and the resulting imprisonment is arbitrary imprisonment.

I would add, in so far as the question of interest or standing discussed by McIntyre J. is concerned, that I am of the opinion that an accused should be recognized as having standing to challenge the constitutional validity of a mandatory minimum sentence, whether or not, as applied to his case, it would result in cruel and unusual punishment.
