Mr. Speaker, Liberal hug-a-thug policies have created crime and chaos in our communities. After 10 years of reckless Liberal laws, there are 29% more homicides, 76% more sexual assaults and 330% more incidents of extortion.
Canadians deserve to feel safe in their parks, streets and own homes. After years of Liberal catch-and-release policies, they do not. Countless Canadians are victimized every day in violent attacks, home invasions and carjackings. In the last two weeks in Richmond Hill, two brutal executions took place in broad daylight in once quiet and safe neighbourhoods. It should not be this way.
Earlier this week, the Liberals had an opportunity to vote with Conservatives to scrap Liberal bail, but they did not. We need jail, not Liberal bail.
Only Conservatives will repeal the disastrous Liberal soft-on-crime policies and laws and bring safer streets back to our communities.
