Mr. Speaker, Canadians are telling us in no uncertain terms that they want something done about our justice system.
The justice minister talks a good game and keeps throwing out feeble changes to the laws of the land, but where is the enforcement? Strangers move in and occupy land they do not own and nobody touches them. Bikers blow up property, each other, and innocent citizens. Policemen work hard to bring criminals to justice, only to see those same criminals walk out of court with a slap on their wrists and a smirk on their faces.
Law-abiding citizens are fed up. Hundreds will rally tonight with the Reform Party leader at the Civic Auditorium in Oshawa. Reform has a strong, common sense plan to deal with this situation and make public safety the number one priority of our justice system.
The justice minister can either get the message now or voters will talk to him at the ballot box.
I urge the government to listen to what Canadians will be saying tonight in Oshawa.
