Madam Speaker, after eight years with this Prime Minister, our cities are becoming less and less safe. The crime rate has increased by 32%. Murders committed by street gangs have almost doubled. This is all due to the soft-on-crime approach of this government, which has made it easier for violent criminals to be released on bail and has eliminated mandatory prison sentences for crimes committed with firearms. When will this government take the violence in our streets seriously?

Madam Speaker, in its eight years in power, the Liberal government could hardly have done worse. Inflation is at a 40-year high, and interest rates have gone up nine times in the past year even though, just six months ago, the Prime Minister and the Minister of Finance said rates would stay low. As a result, young people cannot afford to buy a house, rents have skyrocketed, and steadily rising food prices are hurting families. By doubling the national debt, which will cost twice as much interest, this government has made it abundantly clear that it is not to be trusted. Then there is the justice system, which is broken all across Canada. Repeat offenders can serve their time in the community rather than in jail. Violence has gone up 32% since 2015, and street gang violence has jumped 90% in that time. It is time the NDP-Liberal coalition handed things over to a team that is qualified to lead the country: the Conservatives.
