Mr. Speaker, when we proposed funding programs that would prevent gang violence, the Conservatives voted against it. When we proposed other measures in order to ensure greater security in our communities, the Conservatives voted against them. Essentially, the Conservatives have voted even against investing in greater border security.
The Conservatives come today and talk about the importance of making our communities safer. I would invite them to stop speaking out of both sides of their mouth. If they believe in greater safety, then they should believe in keeping our borders secure. If they believe in greater safety, then they should believe in taking guns off our streets instead of putting them back on them.
