My point is, the parole system is worthwhile, it allows some control over the inmate before they are unconditionally released. Some of the people on parole are going to commit crimes, even murders. Some people who serve their full sentences are also going to commit crimes after release, parole or not.

I don't think the news articles or the parole stats support a revocation of the parole system.

We shouldn't get rid of the parole system to save lives just like we shouldn't get rid of cars to save lives.
Ah, can you please show me where I said anything even close to something regarding eliminating the parole system in Canada.
