The point you make about the presence of 11 police officers in our own caucus is a good one. It's not a coincidence that police officers, generally speaking, support our political party because of the effective measures that we take on crime and gun control. This is a caucus of 11 that I consult with regularly, because they are the experts. They have that background and they have their ears to the ground in ways that I simply cannot match.
I hear on a regular basis from law enforcement officers who strongly support the legislative initiatives we have taken. Bill C-10 is generally supported by the police officers, the police chiefs. They are frustrated that for years this legislation has been stalled in the House of Commons because, prior to the last election, the Liberals and New Democrats consistently found ways to thwart the passage of legislation that would not just make people feel safe but would actually make them safer.
