“Our government is making communities safer and improving justice. We are hiring 1,000 more police officers and 1,000 more border officers. Better scanning at the border is already helping.”
“Mr. Speaker, the investments that we have made, including those commitments of 1,000 RCMP officers and 1,000 CBSA officers, have the promise to really make a dent into this. I had the pleasure of touring a CBSA facility last summer in the Windsor area and hearing from the frontline leaders of the CBSA. They told us how important this was and how the advanced scanning available through the CBSA is making real inroads. Those operational things, reforms and those things happening on the ground, combined with the legislative reforms I mentioned earlier, reflect the government’s determined and balanced approach to protecting community safety while bolstering confidence in the criminal justice system.”
