Madam Speaker, this government likes to strut about claiming to be tough on crime, but in reality, it is all just a sham. The Conservatives have been found guilty of an in and out scandal, and when we talk to them about the biggest electoral fraud in the history of the country, they shrug their shoulders as if to say, “Why worry about it when we are the ones benefiting?”
Now, a British offender who has just been released from an American prison is being allowed entry into Canada as though nothing ever happened, and the government is washing its hands of the situation. Clearly, it is much easier to keep peaceful protestors, separated families and real refugees out of the country than a lord who spent years using his newspapers to help the Conservative cause.
This government can claim to be tough on crime all it likes, but the fact is that criminals have a pretty nice life if they are Conservatives.
