moved for leave to introduce Bill C-254, an act to amend the Criminal Code (using or operating a stolen motor vehicle in the commission of an offence.
Mr. Speaker, the bill is on the suggestion of the Canadian Police Commission that is asking for assistance in dealing with those convicts who steal a car and use the vehicle in the commission of a crime.
It is asking that this be given special consideration which would involve consecutive sentencing for that crime. Consecutive sentencing is a very unusual word to the Liberal government, but I am sure it will understand the meaning of this document.
