Yeah, it came in around 2012. I recall with the Legebokoff case, people were really disappointed because although the new sentencing rules were in place, he committed hi crimes just before they were put in place, so they didn't apply them.

The judge in that case said in his decision that he should never be let out. These statement from the trial judge do come into play when convicts try to get parole though.
