Mr. Speaker, the safety of Canadians is all of our responsibility. The tool that we have in this chamber is the Criminal Code of Canada. The tool that the provinces have is implementing the administration of criminal justice in their localities.
What does that mean? That means hiring police officers. It means hiring Crowns to argue about bail cases. It means ensuring JPs have the training to apply the law. It means ensuring that there are detention facilities to house people who are being denied bail. These are critical facets that need to be invested in.
We are doing the work we need to on the Criminal Code, and we will continue to do so. What we expect is co-operation from the provinces.
