Mr. Speaker, of course we are doing no such thing. We are looking at the systemic discrimination and racism that exist in our justice system, which unfairly, particularly under the previous Conservative government's tough-on-crime approach, penalizes Black and indigenous Canadians. This is why we will continue to move forward in a responsible way to make sure that criminals are punished, that penalties are brought in and that our communities are kept safe, including by preventing more Canadians from becoming victims of gun violence by strengthening gun control. Why will the Conservatives not stand with us on that?
