Ottawa Now - The potential pitfalls of publicizing Ontario's sex offender registry

The Ford government is looking at expanding the amount of public information within the province’s sex offender registry. Speaking to reporters on Monday, Ontario’s Premier made his stance crystal-clear, describing the idea as a ‘no-brainer’ to pursue. But how far is too far? Here in Ontario, the detail-by-detail breakdown of the sex offender registry is only available to police officers. And while the general public receives a warning if a sexual offender is living within the neighbourhood, they aren't privy to broader information about those cases. Kristy Cameron gathers the legal perspective from criminal defense lawyer Michael Spratt on today's Ottawa Now.
