  • Curious about why the owner of an expensive sports car would be outside a notoriously seedy Toronto motel, police knock on the door and are met with gunfire. Over the next several hours - hundreds of bullets are fired in the biggest shootout in the city’s history.
    When the onslaught is over, the ensuing investigation uncovers a string of crimes leading back to the elderly owners of a BC gun shop.

      No you’re wrong.
      First degree murder conviction is a mandatory 25 years in prison before parole ELIGIBILITY. Then if released on parole they’re on parole until they die and if they break the conditions of their parole they go back to prison. Another thing is most convicted of first degree murder don’t get released after 25 years, I think the average is 32 years before release but im not certain about that.
      For second degree murder conviction it’s also a life sentence but the judge determines the number of years before parole ELIGIBILITY.
      For all other sentences you do 2/3 of your sentence before being released on Statutory release but only if you didn’t lose any good time while doing time.
