Look, I'm struck by the incredulous nature of that question. Rights exist in this country, but we can also agree that dangerous people who commit serious crimes should be incarcerated. We are literally changing the law, as we speak, to make it harder for violent repeat offenders to be released on bail and to ensure they face tougher sentences. I think that's something we agree on.
The combative nature of this exchange, and frankly the position of parties in the House on matters where we should be finding common ground to advance policy, is a reflection of the sorry state of Canadian politics, in a lot of ways. I'm not going to stand here and say that I support the egregious behaviour of a predator who's committing crimes. No, that's someone who should face real consequences for very serious infractions. But we can't just bluster at the committee with aggressive talking points. We need to identify solutions, debate them and advance them so that we can actually offer protections to people and communities.
