Mr. Speaker, the reality is that this bill will do very little to fix the problem that Liberal minister and his Liberal government created.
Meanwhile, innocent Canadians are being murdered, abused and violated on a daily basis in our communities. Conservatives know that it does not have to be this way. Certainly, Winnipeggers deserve far better than what that Liberal minister is offering them.
Last year, Winnipeg saw a 12% increase in knife attacks. Bear spray attacks doubled in the last three years and property crime is way up. We know that violent repeat offenders are behind most of these crimes.
When will the minister reverse his dangerous catch-and-release policies once and for all?
