Mr. Speaker, the fact is that our government has increased front-line officers at the border by 26%. We want to make sure that the border is open for legitimate trade and travel but closed to illegitimate and criminal activity.
Every time we try to bring forward measures, whether they are initiatives at the border to cut red tape and redundancy or to cut union money taxpayers' dollars are going toward and putting it instead toward front-line border officers, the opposition votes against it. We are actually bringing forward measures that have an effect in stopping criminal activity at the border.
