“We have toughened bail rules, made sentences longer, and brought back mandatory minimum sentences. Our work to fund police, secure our borders, and catch criminals has lowered car thefts. I want the Senate to pass our bail and sentencing bill quickly.”
“Mr. Speaker, we have made more changes to the Criminal Code of Canada than any other government by strengthening bail provisions and lengthening sentences, and guess what, auto theft is down across this country due to the efforts we have made in resourcing, law enforcement, making sure our borders are stronger and catching criminals. I hope the other place will pass the bail and sentencing bill as soon as possible. We are also reinstating minimum sentences.”
