  • Re: Bill C-5 
Mr. Speaker, for eight years we have heard the Prime Minister falsely proclaim that he is a feminist. After eight years, violent crime against women has never been higher. A Crown prosecutor in Quebec had the courage to speak out after a rapist received a 20-month sentence that he could serve at home, in the community, because Bill C‑5 had been passed in the House by the Liberals with the help of the NDP and the Bloc. This prosecutor said that the Prime Minister and the Minister of Justice “will have to answer to the victims of sexual assault”. Can the Prime Minister look victims in the eye and tell them that he is satisfied with the sentence that was handed down?
