Mr. Speaker, it was important that the leader of the Liberal Party, as all of us did during the election, recognized some of the concerns that our constituents have with crime, but make no mistake that they had concerns with crime for many years prior, even during the time the Conservatives were in power. Our leader took the time and had the consideration to listen, make commitments and put forward in our platform what we should do going forward. This is unlike opposition members, who are only using slogans and fearmongering when there is an opportunity to work collaboratively with all levels of government and authorities to ensure real safety for our public.
