Mr. Speaker, I have several petitions I wish to present to the House.
The first petition deals with section 745 of the Criminal Code. As members know, that provision in the code allows those convicted of first and second degree murder with parole ineligibility in excess of 15 years to apply to have their parole ineligibility reduced.
The petitioners call on the Government of Canada to repeal section 745 of the code so that the parole ineligibility provisions are not reduced.
