Mr. Speaker, I wish to inform the government that this week is Victims and Survivors of Crime Week.
I know that the Liberals have made it clear that victims have not been a priority of theirs in the last two and a half years, and of course the latest example is Bill C-75, which would reduce the penalties for many serious crimes, including the abduction of a child under 14 years of age, forced marriage, participation in terrorist groups and criminal organizations, and many others.
Is there any hope that the government can change its philosophy before the next election and start putting victims first? Can it do that?
