Think about being accused of a crime, such as vandalism. In what way would you want justice to be “ blind ” ? What would you want justice to weigh in the balance?

24 24 How to Create a Political Cartoon Techniques Used Symbolism Cartoonists use simple objects, or symbols, to stand for larger concepts or ideas. Exaggeration Sometimes the cartoonist overdo, or exaggerate, the physical characteristics of people or things in order to make a point. (Facial characteristics and clothing are some of the most commonly exaggerated) Labeling Cartoonists often label objects or people to make it clear exactly what they stand for. Analogy An analogy is a comparison between 2 unlike things. By comparing a complex issue or situation with a more familiar one, cartoonists can help readers see it in a different light. Irony Irony is the difference between the way things are and the way things should be, or the way things are expected to be. Cartoonists often use irony to express their opinion on an issue.

25 25 Analyzing Political Cartoons

26 What role do Canadian citizens and organizations play in the fairness and equity of Canada’s justice system for youth? The Jury: The Jury:  Under the YCJA, a person 14 years of age or older can choose to be tried by a judge and jury for certain serious offences (assault/murder)  12 people on the jury  ALL must agree in order to reach a guilty verdict  This means the decision is UNANIMOUS.  Anyone 18 years or older is eligible for jury duty with only a few exception (convicted criminal) 26

27 Jury  Serving on juries is a responsibility of any citizen called to participate.  You must take time off work, find a ride, etc. regardless or your personal desire  Employers have to give you time off for jury duty  But, they don’t have to pay you  You can be excused form jury duty if you can prove it causes undue hardship. 27

28 Jury Defence: Lawyer supporting the accused and his evidence to assist an innocent plea. Defence: Lawyer supporting the accused and his evidence to assist an innocent plea. Prosecution: Lawyer and evidence to support the guild of the accused Prosecution: Lawyer and evidence to support the guild of the accused Sequester: Remove the jury form the outside world.

These committees reflect the idea of the sentencing circle. Sentencing circles come from the traditions of some Aboriginal peoples. The committees act on the idea that breaking a law harms everyone in the community, and that the community must become involved in solutions.
