  • Re: Bill C-48 
Mr. Speaker, I appreciate the question from my colleague across the way. I want all Canadians watching us right now to know that crime in our communities is a priority for every parliamentarian in the House. That being said, with Bill C‑48, which was just enacted two months ago and deals with bail, we focused specifically on the most violent offenders who used a firearm in the commission of their crime. We are aiming for a situation where these individuals will stay in prison.
