Mr. Speaker, for a decade, the Liberals have dismantled criminal laws, gutted jail sentences and allowed gangs and extortionists to rule our streets.
Since 2015, violent crime is up nearly 55%. Sexual assaults have surged over 75%. Gun crime has skyrocketed 130%, and extortions have exploded 330%. Conservatives have put forward many solutions, among them reversing Liberal bail and bringing in jail, not bail; listing the Bishnoi gang as a terrorist entity; taking urgent action on extortion from Surrey to Brampton; firing the embattled public safety minister, whose gun buyback scheme will only punish law-abiding hunters and farmers; using all legislative tools to ensure that child sex predators are receiving the worst punishments possible; and properly punishing intimate partner violence once and for all.
Together, Conservatives will repeal reckless Liberal policies, put victims first and restore safety to our streets.
