Conservatives Will Keep Our Streets Safe – For a Change
Ottawa, ON – Ron Chhinzer, Conservative Candidate for Oakville East, issued the following statement:
“Canadians have a choice on April 28th. They can choose a fourth Liberal term of crime and chaos on our streets. Violent crime is up 50%. Gun crime is up 116%. Car theft is up 45%. Human trafficking is up 83%. And extortion is up an eye-watering 357%. And in Quebec alone, the amount of sexual offenders who are serving their sentences at home has increased by 600% since the Liberals passed their hug-a-thug laws.”
“Mark Carney has said that locking up multiple murderers for the rest of their lives is ‘dangerous”. He rejected locking up repeat, violent offenders for a minimum of ten years. And he has surrounded himself with Liberal candidates who have supported catch-and-release bail, drug legalization, and defunding the police.”
“Canada First Conservatives will stop the crime. Our plan includes measures to:
- Impose life sentences for anyone who is convicted of serious human, gun, or fentanyl trafficking.
- Create a new criminal offence for assaulting an intimate partner and pass a law to require the strictest possible bail conditions for anyone accused of intimate partner violence.
- Make addiction recovery a reality for 50,000 Canadians and end the Liberals radical drug experiments.
- Pass a Three Strikes and You’re Out law to ban bail, parole and house arrest for repeat serious criminals.
- Lock up car thieves by increasing mandatory prison sentences to three years for a third conviction and making car theft for organized crime a specific aggravating factor.
- Restore the power for judges to keep multiple murderers behind bars for longer than 25 years by allowing consecutive periods of parole ineligibility.
- Impose tough new fines and mandatory prison sentences for scamming seniors.
“Only a new Conservative government will stop the crime, lock up dangerous criminals, and give repeat violent offenders jail, not bail. Only Conservatives will bring home safe streets for law-abiding Canadians–For a Change.”
