The mayor of Laval is asking for help to fight violent crimes in his city. At the same time, Statistics Canada has confirmed that homicides in Canada and crimes related to street gangs have reached their highest levels since this Prime Minister came to power in 2015. In the meantime, the Liberals, with the help of our Bloc Québécois and NDP friends, voted to eliminate, for example, minimum sentences for armed robbery. Why does the Prime Minister prefer to leave criminals at large rather than protecting Canadians' safety and security?

Mr. Speaker, there are so many things being said in the House that are completely false. The fact remains that we are currently seeing a 32% rise in violent crime. According to the Montreal police, there were 144 shootings in the streets last year. That is one shooting every two or three days. All of these shootings involved illegal weapons. University of Quebec professor Marc Alain said that our border is literally full of holes and that it has never been easier to access weapons in Canada than it has been over the past four years. We are talking about illegal weapons. This government is spending billions of dollars to harm honest citizens. Why not take care of criminals and gangs instead?
