A recent case in Calgary saw a Chinese national get released from prison on murder charges after a year and a half. He violently killed his wife.

My evidence would be the Criminal Code and federal sentencing mandates:

Note 6 of that piece is particularly strong at dispelling this myth that convicted murders are released in 2 years.
I have no idea what case you are referring to, but I suspect that he was not convicted of murder.
