Mr. Speaker, I sincerely thank the member for her dedication to improving Canada's justice system. As my hon. colleague stated, the Minister of Justice introduced a bill yesterday, which specifically targets gangs and organized crime activity in our country.
Murder, drive-by shootings, aggravated assault against police officers and assaulting a police officer with a weapon will all carry significant penalties. We will ensure that the criminal enterprise is effectively disrupted. Every minute a gang member is behind bars is a minute that he or she is not creating more innocent victims in our communities.
Let us not be fooled. When it comes to fighting crime, Canadians know they can count on members on this side of the House.
