MEMBER OF PARLIAMENT

Roman Baber

Baber focuses on tough-on-crime policies, pushing for mandatory minimum sentences and criticizing any perceived weakening of them. He also raises privacy concerns around the government collecting data. While he brings up some specific issues, like child pornography and bail reform, much of his rhetoric relies on painting the Liberal government as broadly failing on crime and the economy.

“The Prime Minister spends too much and puts it all on the nation's credit card. Canadians will pay for his debts for generations. His spending causes inflation. Many Canadians now skip meals. An economist should know this. I want the Prime Minister to stop borrowing and spending so much so Canadians can afford to live.”
