Madam Speaker, crime and chaos are running rampant on the streets of our country due to this Prime Minister's soft-on-crime approach. Nowhere is this more apparent than in my home province of British Columbia. The B.C. NDP, with the support of the NDP-Liberal government, is now actively involved in the illegal drug trade. Overnight, we learned that the B.C. NDP is funnelling hundreds of thousands of dollars to a group that buys drugs on the black market and then distributes them on the streets of my province. After eight long years of this Prime Minister, this shocking story should come as no surprise. Rather than creating real solutions to the opioid and overdose crisis, the Prime Minister prefers to take the easy way out and to transfer Canadians' hard-earned money to illegal drug dealers instead. With overdoses now the leading cause of death among people aged 10 to 59 in our country, it is clear to Canadians that this Prime Minister is out of touch and just not worth the cost.
