Mr. Speaker, Colin Thatcher was convicted of brutally murdering his wife in 1984. He received a life sentence for that. These days he is spending his life golfing, cooking his favourite dinners, watching television, chatting on the phone. No, he is not out, he is actually at Ferndale prison in Mission, British Columbia. He asked recently if he could board his horse at the prison and the prison agreed.
I would like to ask the solicitor general if the Liberal's think that golfing, cooking and grooming horses in prison is sufficient punishment for someone who so brutally murdered his wife?
