Madam Speaker, I am trying to understand the member's approach.
We all remember that under a Conservative government, the system was very judicialized in areas that warranted a different approach. That is what this bill seeks to do. Evidence suggests that some measures and the way certain offences are handled are ineffective. Criminalization leads precisely to outcomes we do not want. In Quebec, there has been a heavy focus on rehabilitation for certain issues.
Why do the Conservatives fail to recognize that this evidence on offences shows that this is more of a public health issue than a public safety issue?
