Mr. Speaker, after nine years of the NDP-Liberals, taxes are up, costs are up, crime is up and time is up. The Prime Minister wants to pat himself on the back, but the data and the Toronto Police Association say he is out of touch.
Last year in Toronto, there was a 45% increase in shootings and a 62% increase in gun-related homicides. In St. Paul's, two people were murdered in Oakwood, a police officer was shot near Yonge and Eglinton, and armed home invasions happen every day. The Liberals make life easy for career criminals with their catch-and-release bail policies.
When will the government finally come up with a plan to stop the crime and bring home safe streets?
