Mr. Speaker, this is indeed an historic day for Canada, because we are turning the page on the completely failed policies of the former Conservative government. These tough-on-crime policies did not work, clogged up the system and disproportionately punished indigenous and black people in the justice system. We are putting the emphasis on serious crimes with serious sentences. We will continue to do so with this historic bill.
