The images of the creature, which occupied almost the entire boat, garnered attention after Port Hacking Game Fishing Club posted them on its Facebook page, 9 News reported. According to Yahoo News Australia, the enormous fish was a tiger shark. It was caught 16 nautical miles offshore in Port Hacking — where water depths can reach up to 48 meters (157 feet) — by Paul Barning and his Dark Horse crew. The team took 45 minutes to reel the shark in, according to 7News. People gathered to watch as the boat carrying the shark landed at the Port Hacking jetty. The report said the fishermen had to hold the shark to stop it from slipping back into the water. Naturally, some were in awe of this giant fish. “My daughter is nine, I just showed her the picture as we caught a small mako a few weeks back and she said she thinks you caught a JAWS!” a fisherman reacted to the post. Someone else wrote: “Think you’re gonna need a bigger boat.” A few others also commented on how the crew managed to get the shark on the boat without destroying it. “Would’ve been kicking very hard,” one observed. However, the images posted by the team on Facebook triggered controversy. One person described the big catch as “selfish stupidity.” “What’s the thrill of killing something for the sake of it? Just curious,” another person wrote. Scientists have recorded a fall in the number of tiger sharks by over 74 percent during the last 50 years, Yahoo News Australia noted. Humane Society International shark expert Lawrence Chlebeck said larger sharks, like the one caught on Sunday, play an important role as apex predators of the ocean and learn not to prey on humans by the time they get to that size. After being caught, tiger sharks can be released back into the ocean with a high likelihood of survival, he said.

Photography by David Jackson/The Globe and Mail The faint aroma of smoke from a smudging ceremony lingers at the start of the Indigenous People’s Court in Thunder Bay. The judge, prosecutor and court staff all take part in the ritual and then sit in a circle of desks. Their focal point on this June day in 2019 is a 37-year-old First Nations man with tousled hair and a thin goatee, who also sits in the circle. He already pleaded guilty to thefts involving a car and a bottle of raspberry-flavoured vodka, but he’s not here for sentencing. The group is collaborating on his healing plan instead. “The point is to get you as much help as possible to keep you on the straight and narrow,” an Indigenous elder tells him. He mentions that an Alcoholics Anonymous-style program created by “American Indians” has just come to Thunder Bay. “Give it a try,” he advises. “It’s something different from AA.” Story continues below advertisement The judge, wearing a blazer instead of black robes, looks at the defendant from across the circle. “We really have to focus on your sobriety, your well-being, your recovery at this point,” she says. She prods him to finish the two Grade 12 credits he needs for his high-school diploma. Before he hurries out the door, the man says he will try to do these things. He has just a few months to show the court that he is committed to the healing plan. If he makes good, everyone in this round room will embrace him in a blanket ceremony and set him free. And if he doesn’t, he’s probably headed back to jail. It’s a cycle that he has known for years.A sticky note marks the section on ‘aboriginal offenders’ in a copy of the 2019 Martin’s Criminal Code book.

Canada’s criminal justice system has spent years struggling with how to create better outcomes for Indigenous people found to have broken the law. There is no consensus in the legal community about how to best achieve the desired alternatives. Yet there is no longer any question that justice officials must work harder at finding alternatives to warehousing Indigenous offenders in jails and prisons. Specialized sentencing courts for Indigenous offenders have been sporadically created across Canada over the past 20 years, including in Alberta, B.C., Saskatchewan, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick, but Ontario has been setting aside spaces for this new approach more than any other province. At first, the province did this by repurposing old courtrooms that outwardly still appear no different than any other. But in more recent years, Ontario has also been building some specialized sentencing courtrooms from the ground up, resulting in 16 specialized courts in communities across the province, with another two under development. These courts amount to a continuing experiment in the Canadian criminal justice system, given how they allow judges to slow down proceedings and open themselves up to direct input from Indigenous groups. This crucial venture is currently on pause as the coronavirus crisis closed many courts, redirecting proceedings to time-crunched virtual sessions. But a trail is being blazed. In terms of architectural ambition, there is no better example than Thunder Bay’s Indigenous People’s Court (IPC), which became a full-fledged alternative sentencing court in 2017. In the hope it would become a model for other courts to follow, the courtroom’s architects spent years studying how to build a sense of Indigenous tradition into the ground-floor wing of the city’s new court complex, including consulting with the city’s Indigenous Friendship Centre and other experts.
