CONT

Dans le cadre du régime légal de détermination de la peine, le juge du procès doit évidemment exercer son pouvoir discrétionnaire dans les limites prévues par le Code criminel. En effet, lorsqu’il prononce des peines, il a l’obligation de respecter les peines minimales obligatoires établies par la loi et les autres dispositions prohibant certaines sanctions à l’égard d’une infraction donnée.
