Mr. Speaker, in my hometown of Williams Lake, with a population of 10,000, six prolific offenders have committed 98% of the crime. When they are in jail, the crime rate goes down. When they are out on the streets, the crime rate goes up.
Businesses cannot even get mandatory insurance anymore due to the high rates of vandalism. On top of that, our communities are faced with an out-of-control overdose crisis. Last week, Williams Lake saw an average of 20 to 30 overdoses per day.
If he is the man with a plan, will the Prime Minister rise today to tell us what his plan is to confront the overdose crisis, lock up repeat offenders and make our communities safe?
