A Windsor man has been designated a dangerous offender and sentenced to 11 years in prison.
With credit for time already served, Daniel Nickolson, 51, will spend another nearly six years in custody followed by 10 years of long-term supervision.
Nickolson was convicted in 2016 of more than 50 charges such as luring, extortion and child porn-related offence
The Crown was seeking an indefinite amount of time behind bars, but Justice Bruce Thomas felt that the public could be protected by a lengthy sentence and supervision.
Nickolson has a criminal record dating back to the 1980s when he was convicted of an indecent act with a child.
There is a 21 year gap between Nickolson's first and second offences and he has regularly attended treatment programs.
Assistant Crown Lisa Defoe calls the ruling fair.
"The Crown's role is not to win or lose, our role is to take the crown's case to its highest and that was done," says Dafoe. "Ultimately the decision by Justice Thomas protects the public which is the paramount consideration."
Defence Attorney Andrew Telford-Keogh says there is hope for Nickolson.
"There was a reasonable expectation of control in the community and his honour adopted that position and I think it was reasonable to do so."
Among the recommendations made by Justice Thomas is that when he is released, Nickolson be given drugs to limit his sex drive.
Court heard that Nickolson had thousands of Skype messages with young girls telling them to take off their clothes and threatening them if they didn't .
Nickolson has been in custody for more than 40 months which is removed from the 11 year sentence.
