Mr. Speaker, yesterday, the Prime Minister fled the House of Commons instead of answering questions about public safety. The current crime wave is the direct result of Liberal-NDP policies that put the criminals who are usually considered the most dangerous back on the streets. Half a dozen people have been murdered in the past week, including a police officer in Quebec. Will the Prime Minister reverse the policies that set the most dangerous offenders loose? Will he protect the safety of Canadians?

Mr. Speaker, I want to be clear that our hearts go out to every single victim who has been impacted by violent crime. The Conservatives heckle. They speak a lot about common sense. I will tell them what common sense is. Common sense is not returning to the stale and failed policies that led to police cuts by Conservatives, which led to weakened borders as a result of the Conservative cuts, and that saw Conservatives give up on vulnerable Canadians, while this government continues to support them. Drop the slogans. Let us focus on solutions. Let us do this work together so we can protect our communities.
