Steven Blaney at the Public Safety and National Security Committee

I simply want to say that it seems extremely important to me that this bill be debated at the Standing Committee on Public Safety and National Security, because we are talking about an extremely important safety issue. Indeed, these things destabilize and disrupt an environment. There is an increase in criminal activity and a deterioration in quality of life.

I did not get into politics to further human misery and contribute to the total disfigurement of neighbourhoods. That is why it is important, in my opinion, that this bill also be viewed as a matter of public safety.
