Mr. Speaker, I am pleased to present petitions with a total of 1,286 signatures mainly from the city of Calgary.
The petitioners request the government to bring in legislation to toughen the Young Offenders Act along the lines of the principles of the former juvenile delinquents act. The petitions are signed in memory of Ryan Garrioch, a young boy in my riding who was murdered in a school yard.
I would urge the government to consider carefully these kinds of recommendations.
