Mr. Speaker, in April 2009, our government introduced Bill C-26 to tackle the crime of auto theft, which causes losses of over $1 billion a year.
For the past four months, Liberal senators have been delaying this bill.
Yet this bill will facilitate investigations and prosecution in cases of auto theft, and will also increase sentences for serious crimes.
Canadians want action. This bill comes in addition to the measures already put in place by our government to fight organized crime.
We urge the Liberals to listen to Canadians, as we did, and to stop playing partisan politics on the backs of victims.
When will the Liberal leader tell his colleagues in the Senate to pass this important bill?
Our government is the only party that can protect victims.
