Kuruc consistently pushes a 'tough on crime' message, calling for stricter penalties, longer sentences, and criticizing the Liberals as soft on crime. He frequently brings up his riding, tying national issues to local concerns and emotional anecdotes. Kuruc's tone is often blunt and confrontational, directly attacking the government and accusing other members of being out of touch with Canadians.
“I want judges to have less discretion. We need mandatory minimums to be tougher on criminals. If we don't do this, all our talk is meaningless. I want you to believe Conservatives are tough on crime.”
“I want mandatory minimum sentences for crimes against women and children. No exceptions. You should agree with us. A good bill needs our tough on crime approach.”
“You don't want to talk about the bill. Let's talk about public safety. Mandatory minimums are good. My party's amendments would make Canada safer. The government isn't keeping Canadians safe.”
“I'm using emotional language about Canadian history to introduce my real topic. The Liberals are soft on crime! Their bill reduces mandatory minimums, which I don't like. They voted against our bills for stricter penalties. I want criminals to stay behind bars longer. Canadians should feel less safe because of current laws. We like some parts of this bill, but adding a 'safety valve' is a bad idea -- mandatory should mean mandatory, not optional. Let's remove the safety valve part and pass the rest.”
“I want to shame you. I don't like what you said.”
“You messed up. Your bad laws put a criminal out on bail. You voted for bad things. You voted against good things. You're lying now. It's your fault, not ours.”
“I want to make sure the worst criminals stay in maximum security prison. I think the Liberals made a mistake when they made the rules weaker. The worst criminals shouldn't get to go to a medium security prison later. I want to fix that. People who did really bad crimes should stay in the strictest prison forever. Victims' families shouldn't have to hear that person got to move. I think we need to change the rules so that can't happen.”
“I want the government to release all documents about this deal. They are leasing land for too much money. It used to be $13,500 a year. Now it's $20 million a year. That's a lot more. Canadians deserve to know why.”
“The government should deport people accused of murder who aren't citizens. I'm angry the government isn't doing this. I want the government to do its job. The residents are demanding it.”
“You're out of touch. Canada is in a recession. The Liberals failed. Hamilton parents need jobs, lower tariffs, and paycheques that can buy groceries. Local food banks are busy. The Liberals got a bad grade on food banks. I want the Liberals to stop manipulating Canadians and start working for them.”
“That makes me sad. Canada's economy is shrinking. We're in a recession. It can't be global problems causing it. Canada's the only one in trouble. Tariffs and conflicts aren't the problem. The government must have caused this.”
“A man in my riding is upset about gas prices. I think my party's plan is better than the other party's plan. Our plan will help families. The other party should support our plan. Canadians want lower gas prices. My party's plan will help Canadians.”
“Inflation is high. Prices are up for gas, groceries, and energy. My riding is being squeezed. They can't pay more. I want the government to remove all federal fuel taxes for the year. When will you do what my party wants?”
