Principes généraux
There are two phases to a dangerous offender hearing. First, there is a "designation phase" governed by s. 743(1). Second, there is a "penalty phase" governed by s. 743(4) and (4.1).[1]
Upon conducting a hearing under s. 752 a court may find that the offender is a "dangerous offender". Once such a finding is made the court then has the obligation to determine what is the proper consequence as provided under section 752.1 (4). The court must do one of the following:
- impose a sentence of detention in a penitentiary for an indeterminate period;
- impose a sentence for the offence for which the offender has been convicted — which must be a minimum punishment of imprisonment for a term of two years — and order that the offender be subject to long-term supervision for a period that does not exceed 10 years; or
- impose a sentence for the offence for which the offender has been convicted.

Findings on A Dangerous Offender Hearing
753
[omis (1), (1.1), (2) and (3)]
- Sentence for dangerous offender
(4) If the court finds an offender to be a dangerous offender, it shall
- (a) impose a sentence of detention in a penitentiary for an indeterminate period;
- (b) impose a sentence for the offence for which the offender has been convicted — which must be a minimum punishment of imprisonment for a term of two years — and order that the offender be subject to long-term supervision for a period that does not exceed 10 years; or
- (c) impose a sentence for the offence for which the offender has been convicted.
- Sentence of indeterminate detention
(4.1) The court shall impose a sentence of detention in a penitentiary for an indeterminate period unless it is satisfied by the evidence adduced during the hearing of the application that there is a reasonable expectation that a lesser measure under paragraph (4)(b) [peine pour délinquant dangereux – ordonnance de délinquant à contrôler] or (c) [peine pour délinquant dangereux – condamné pour l'infraction répertoriée] will adequately protect the public against the commission by the offender of murder or a serious personal injury offence.
- If application made after sentencing
(4.2) If the application is made after the offender begins to serve the sentence in a case to which paragraphs (2)(a) [moment de la demande – avis avant la détermination de la peine, demande dans les 6 mois] and (b) [moment de la demande – avis après la détermination de la peine, nouveaux renseignements] apply, a sentence imposed under paragraph (4)(a) [peine pour délinquant dangereux – peine indéterminée], or a sentence imposed and an order made under paragraph 4(b), replaces the sentence that was imposed for the offence for which the offender was convicted.
- If offender not found to be dangerous offender
(5) If the court does not find an offender to be a dangerous offender,
- (a) the court may treat the application as an application to find the offender to be a long-term offender, section 753.1 [pouvoir de rendre une ordonnance de délinquant à contrôler] applies to the application and the court may either find that the offender is a long-term offender or hold another hearing for that purpose; or
- (b) the court may impose sentence for the offence for which the offender has been convicted.
R.S., 1985, c. C-46, s. 753; 1997, c. 17, s. 4; 2008, c. 6, s. 42.
[annotation(s) ajoutée(s)]
Section 753(4) is an exhaustive list of available penalties once an offender is designated "dangerous."[1]
For a dangerous offender sentencing, protection of public as a sentencing objective is "enhanced."[2]
- "Reasonable Expectation"
A "reasonable expectation" is equivalent to a "likelihood", a "belief that something would happen", or a "confident belief, for good and sufficient reasons."[3] It is not the more stringent standard of "reasonable possibility."[4]

[omis (1) and (2)]
- Sentence for long-term offender

- Exception — if application made after sentencing
(3.1) The court may not impose a sentence under paragraph (3)(a) [pouvoir de rendre une ordonnance de délinquant à contrôler – imposer une peine de 2 ans ou plus] and the sentence that was imposed for the offence for which the offender was convicted stands despite the offender’s being found to be a long-term offender, if the application was one that
- (a) was made after the offender begins to serve the sentence in a case to which paragraphs 753(2)(a) [moment de la demande – avis avant la détermination de la peine, demande dans les 6 mois] and (b) [moment de la demande – avis après la détermination de la peine, nouveaux renseignements] apply; and
- (b) was treated as an application under this section further to the court deciding to do so under paragraph 753(5)(a) [si le délinquant n'est pas jugé dangereux – rendre une ordonnance de délinquant à contrôler].
(4) and (5) [Repealed, 2008, c. 6, s. 44]
- If offender not found to be long-term offender
