Mr. Speaker, the minister's job is to know that this happens and to ensure that it never happens in the first place.
The president of the Ontario police chiefs said, “Conditional and intermittent sentences, house arrest, 2 for 1 and 3 for 1 earned sentence protocols, mandatory parole and weekend passes to local theme parks do little to dissuade murderers, marijuana grow operators, ecstasy manufacturers, carjackers, child molesters and others from committing these horrific crimes”.
Everyone else in the country knows being soft of crime does not work. When is the minister and the government going to get it?
