Mr. Speaker, the funny thing is that, in modernizing our legal system, most of the legislation we have had to deal with is because of the violations of the previous government. The Supreme Court gave ruling after ruling saying that all the legislation the Conservatives passed was invalid, was not just and does not comply with our charter. Over the last 10 years, we have been fixing all the Conservatives' errors.
Crime is actually on the decline in Canada. I think major serious crime is on the decline. The Liberal government will continue to work hard to address the root causes and make Canada a safer, more compliant place, where our citizens can live freely, free of crime and free of threats of extortion.
