moved for leave to introduce Bill C-358, an act to amend the Criminal Code (consecutive sentences).
Mr. Speaker, I am pleased to rise today to introduce my private member's bill. The bill would see consecutive sentences imposed upon those convicted of multiple violent crimes against a person. I believe such an amendment should be supported by all MPs. I know the changes would be welcomed by the millions of Canadians who have lost faith in the operation of our justice system.
