The appeal is dismissed and the sentence is affirmed because s39C expressly mandates heavier punishment for repeat offenders; there was no double counting of prior convictions by the trial judge; the mitigating factors relied on did not outweigh the statutory scheme and public interest considerations; and the court properly took judicial notice of drug offence trends and statistics to support the sentence.
