Mr. Speaker, I feel personally offended with regard to making this a partisan issue. Canadian safety is what is being discussed here, especially with regard to the justice system. What I want to add, though, is that Bill C-14 does not go far enough, but it has support, because London—Fanshawe cannot afford more delays while Parliament debates the perfect solution. I am supporting Bill C-14 at second reading because people like me are asking for change right now, but supporting a bill to move forward does not mean pretending it fixes the core problems created by Bill C-75 and Bill C-5. It simply means I want the bill to reach committee, where it can be strengthened. Londoners want real safety, not half measures, and I will be pushing for real improvements.
To add to that, Bill C-14 expands reverse onus for violent offences. Expanding reverse onus is better than doing nothing—
