Replying to Frank Caputo (Conservative)

“Mr. Speaker, “collaboratively” is the word used by the Minister of Public Safety as to how he would work with Conservatives on Bill C-22 amendments, and yet the government is insisting on using its manufactured majority to now ram this bill through Parliament. Make no mistake: Conservatives want to put the bad folks in jail. We would pass part 1 of the bill swiftly, but Canadians have questions and experts have questions, and we think those questions should be answered with respect to part 2. Why is the Liberal government insistent on ramming Bill C-22 and part 2 through when we would gladly pass part 1 swiftly?”

Take, for example, the shootings at the synagogues that have just happened recently.² Those shooters were paid and hired by a foreign entity, in our country, online.³ Had we been able to find those shooters sooner, there would have been fewer victims.
