Read the Benidickson text, Chapter 8: Offences, Prosecution, and Penalties (particularly pages 179-185) and the assigned cases. Consider other internet and library-based research activities you may wish to undertake. With your co-learners, discuss your views on the appropriate sentencing principles in environmental cases. The following questions may help you identify some aspects of this topic to focus on: • Should a court apply different sentencing considerations when the accused is a corporation? • Do you agree with Stewart, J. who decided the United Keno Hill Mines case about the relevant considerations for environmental cases? (see p.184) • Can you think of any sentencing provisions that have not been discussed in the text?
