Mr. Speaker, I am pleased to stand and present petition e-6777, created by Ms. Outwater, a resident in my neighbouring riding of Peterborough.
All 1,767 of these signatories are concerned about the current system the Liberal government has created when it comes to how safe they feel on the streets of their community. People are concerned that there are repeat offenders continuing to get out on bail so quickly and continuing to reoffend.
They would like something done about the fact that, oftentimes, when there is an intruder, the homeowner will defend themselves and then end up being charged. The petitioners would like to see some changes to that in our justice system. Therefore, I present this petition.
