Madam Speaker, the Liberal government is responsible for crime being exported from the big cities to our nation's rural communities.
We now have marijuana grow-ops, even in Haldimand--Norfolk. Why? Because the government's lax laws and weak sentences have taught criminals that it is worthwhile to target small towns.
The Liberals naturally try to escape responsibility for their own misdeeds, and now they are also allowing the gangs and drug dealers who are ruining communities and killing Canadians to escape justice. Canadians want mandatory minimum prison sentences for drug dealers, gunmen and the perpetrators of serious violent crimes. They do not want a justice minister promising social programs.
Canadians will hold the government accountable for the Liberal use of home jail and house arrest for repeat and violent offenders.
