Denunciatory sentences convey a message of social disapprobation, with the will of society expressed through the severity of the legal punishment. The seriousness of the crime is central to denunciation; there is little need to denounce shoplifting(although there may be a need to prevent such behaviour) but great necessity to denounce the intentional taking of human life(hence the mandatory sentence of life imprisonment for murder).  1, record 1, English, - denunciatory%20sentence

Les peines exemplaires représentent une «déclaration collective [...] que la conduite du contrevenant doit être punie parce qu'elle a porté atteinte au code des valeurs fondamentales de notre société», et le besoin de dénonciation est intimement lié à la gravité de l'infraction. Lorsque les conséquences de l'infraction contreviennent manifestement au «code des valeurs fondamentales» des Canadiens et des Canadiennes, et appellent une forte condamnation, notre Cour fait preuve d'une plus grande déférence à l'égard du Parlement lorsqu'il édicte une peine minimale obligatoire.  3, record 1, French, - peine%20exemplaire

sentence exemplaire : Le mot sentence n’a pas le même sens en français et en anglais.

La peine est la sanction encourue, alors que la sentence est la décision de justice qui condamne à une peine.  2, record 1, French, - peine%20exemplaire
