Mr. Speaker, heinous crimes need to be punished, and we recognize that. This fall, our government will introduce legislation to strengthen Canada's bail system so things like that will not repeat themselves and to make it harder for repeat violent offenders to be released on bail. It would also increase sentences for the most serious repeat violent crimes, particularly those linked to organized crime, home invasion, auto theft and human trafficking, and address court delays so that serious cases will proceed quickly and victims will not be retraumatized by procedural backlogs.
We call on all parties to put partisanship aside and work with us to deliver the evidence-based solutions Canadians expect from us and deserve.
