Kurt Holman Conservative
“I worry this bill removes mandatory minimum prison sentences for most crimes. I want my colleague to explain how that will affect society.”
“Mr. Speaker, Conservatives take public safety and the justice system very seriously, and there are quite the concerns with Bill C-16 regarding the removal of mandatory minimums, with the exception of murder and treason. I would like to ask my Bloc colleague, with the removal of mandatory minimums, how will that have a ripple effect on society?”
