“Police arrested over 17 people in Peel, but the investigation took eight months. Our bill gives police the access they need to catch criminals faster and protect victims. The Conservatives are stalling it.”
“Mr. Speaker, our plan is working, and that is what the Peel Regional Police’s investigation results show. The police have arrested over 17 individuals. Unfortunately, the investigation took eight months. What could have sped up that investigation so we could have caught those criminals within a month or less? Lawful access could have, but the Conservatives have been stalling the bill ever since we introduced it last year. It is what law enforcement is asking for, and we could mitigate having more victims because of the Conservatives’ stalling.”
