Mr. Speaker, we keep hearing from the Liberals, over and over again, that they are angry, but the previous Conservative government spent less money with better results. Extortion was down, violent crime was down and auto thefts were down back then. They are angry that they are spending more money and hiring more people, yet all the numbers are up. Extortion is up more than 300% in this country and violent crime is up 34%.
The Liberals are bragging about their record, but they voted down a common-sense Conservative bill, Bill C-381, brought forward by our common-sense Conservative deputy leader, the member for Edmonton Mill Woods, and so did the NDP. Can the member please comment on how that makes any sense?
