Mr. Speaker, my question concerns the Liberals' Criminal Code provisions that instruct judges to be more lenient to aboriginal criminals.
We on this side of the House understand that discounting sentences for criminals means discounting justice for their victims. In the near future the murderer of RCMP constable Dennis Strongquill may be given a more lenient sentence because of his aboriginal status.
If Dennis' six children were to come here and ask the government to explain why they do not deserve equal, equitable justice in this country, what would the government say?
