Mr. Speaker, border officers want to do their part in protecting Canada, but they need more tools to help stop the flow of toxic drugs, stolen cars and guns. The Conservative leader fired over 1,100 border officers when he was in cabinet, including sniffer dog handlers and frontline staff, and the Liberals never rehired them. New Democrats have been calling on the government for years to invest more in CBSA frontline workers.
Will the Liberals stop letting people down, rehire the officers the Conservatives fired and give them the tools they need to do their job?
