Mr. Speaker, can we afford to let down victims of crime? The answer is an unequivocal no.
Just before question period, the Liberal Party was working to obstruct criminal justice legislation that would help Canadian victims.
Let me give members an example. A while-collar fraudster can steal the retirement benefits of literally thousands of Canadians and be eligible for parole after only one-sixth of his or her sentence.
The Liberal Party wants to stand behind these white-collar fraudsters. I can tell members this government, this party, will never do that. We are fighting hard for victims and we make no apologies.
