The accused was convicted of second degree murder for shooting his girlfriend three times, including while she was on the phone with a 911 operator.
The Crown sought a parole ineligibility period of 17 to 20 years, while the defence sought 10 to 12 years.
The court found the domestic nature of the homicide, the abuse of trust, the use of a firearm, and the callousness of the killing to be significant aggravating factors.
Mitigating factors included the accused's expressions of regret and the harsh conditions of his pre-trial custody during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The court sentenced the accused to life imprisonment with a parole ineligibility period of 14 years.
