Mr. Speaker, I am honoured to present two petitions today.
The first is a petition from an association called Families For Justice. It is a group of Canadians who have lost a loved one killed by an impaired driver.
The petitioners believe Canada's impaired driving laws are much too lenient. They want the crime called what it is, “vehicular homicide”. They highlight that the number one cause of criminal death in Canada is impaired driving causing death, vehicular homicide.
The petitioners call on the Prime Minister to keep his promise to support legislation that would have mandatory minimum sentences, and they oppose Bill C-46.
