“A judge gave a lighter sentence to a non-citizen drug dealer so they would not be deported. The government voted against our bill to stop this. I want to know why they still allow it.”

“Mr. Speaker, a non-citizen was recently convicted of dealing major amounts of fentanyl in Hamilton. People who deal fentanyl are merchants of death, but this is what the judge said when issuing the sentence: “I am concerned about the immigration consequences that may result from the sentence”. He should have been more concerned about the lives ruined by the crimes committed by this non-citizen. Instead, he gave the fentanyl dealer a lenient sentence so they would not be deported. Why did the Liberals vote against our bill to stop this, and why is this practice continuing?”

“A judge gave a light sentence to a non-citizen who badly attacked a woman, just so she would not be deported. The law says she should be deported. Why is she still in Canada?”

“Mr. Speaker, it is not working. Just this week, a non-citizen was recently convicted of viciously attacking a woman outside of a Laval, Quebec, bar, leaving her victim with bite marks all over her face. The facial wounds were several centimetres long. They necessitated repeated treatments and left a prominent scar. Her scars were so bad that people ask her what kind of animal did it to her, and yet the judge gave her attacker a lenient sentence so that she would not be deported. She deserves to be deported. It is what the law says. Why is she still here?”
