Mr. Speaker, the Minister of Public Safety is about to cancel one of the most successful programs protecting public safety. Why?
The program, Circles of Support and Accountability, is responsible for an 83% reduction in sexual recidivism, and a 73% reduction in all types of violent recidivism. The bottom line for Circles of Support and Accountability is no more victims, and it works.
Why is the minister increasing the risk to public safety by cancelling this valuable program?
