Context: House Hansard - 152 - Feb/2/23
Mr. Richard Martel (Chicoutimi—Le Fjord, CPC)

Mr. Speaker, violent crime in Canada has increased by 32% since 2015 and gang-related homicides have increased by 92%. What is more, the Liberals, supported by the Bloc Québécois, passed Bill C‑5, a piece of legislation that eliminates minimum sentencing. That is what is happening in Canada after eight years under this government: more crime and more criminals out on bail. Can the Minister of Justice face reality and admit that his policies favour criminals and penalize victims?
