It is not the end. It is not that we just pass the bill and walk away and clap, saying that it is a job well done. There is a lot more that needs to be done. There are many examples, as I cited in my speech, of repeat violent offenders getting out through a revolving door, over and over again.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8074655\" data-originallang=\"en\">The Liberals are taking a narrow approach that would not fix the problem and would not get crime rates and the crime wave addressed in this country. The NDP always does this. New Democrats go along with the Liberals; they go along with the plan, and now, they are just as responsible for the backtrack. They pushed the initial bill, Bill <a data-HoCid=\"9745407\" href=\"/bills/42-1/C-75/\" title=\"An Act to amend the Criminal Code, the Youth Criminal Justice Act and other Acts and to make consequential amendments to other Acts\">C-75</a> every step the way. They are admitting, just as much as the Liberals are, that they were soft on crime and that they are wrong in their approach. They need more humility. They need a little more water in their wine, and they need to do a full backtrack.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8074656\" data-originallang=\"en\">Law enforcement, Canadians and numerous experts are saying that this is one step, but many more steps are needed to fix the problem. The work is not done yet.</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"8074653\" data-originallang=\"en\">Madame la Pr\u00e9sidente, je dirais que le d\u00e9put\u00e9 devrait examiner de plus pr\u00e8s les t\u00e9moignages et les propos qui ont \u00e9t\u00e9 tenus.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8074654\" data-originallang=\"en\">Encore une fois, le projet de loi <a data-HoCid=\"12426046\" href=\"/bills/44-1/C-48/\" title=\"An Act to amend the Criminal Code (bail reform)\">C-48</a> r\u00e9soudrait une infime partie d\u2019un \u00e9norme probl\u00e8me qui existe au Canada. Ce n\u2019est pas la solution finale. Il ne s\u2019agit pas simplement d\u2019adopter le projet de loi, d\u2019applaudir et de s\u2019en aller en disant que c\u2019est du bon travail. Il reste encore beaucoup \u00e0 faire. Dans mon intervention, j\u2019ai donn\u00e9 l'exemple de nombreux d\u00e9linquants violents r\u00e9cidivistes qui entrent dans le syst\u00e8me carc\u00e9ral et en sortent, encore et encore, comme par des portes tournantes.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8074655\" data-originallang=\"en\">Les lib\u00e9raux proposent une approche limit\u00e9e qui ne r\u00e9soudra pas le probl\u00e8me et ne permettra pas de s\u2019attaquer au taux et \u00e0 la vague de criminalit\u00e9 que conna\u00eet le Canada. Le NPD se comporte toujours de la m\u00eame mani\u00e8re. Les n\u00e9o-d\u00e9mocrates appuient les lib\u00e9raux; ils approuvent le plan, et \u00e0 pr\u00e9sent, ils sont tout aussi responsables du retour en arri\u00e8re. Ils ont appuy\u00e9 le projet de loi initial, le projet de loi <a data-HoCid=\"9745407\" href=\"/bills/42-1/C-75/\" title=\"An Act to amend the Criminal Code, the Youth Criminal Justice Act and other Acts and to make consequential amendments to other Acts\">C-75</a>, \u00e0 chaque \u00e9tape. Ils admettent, tout autant que les lib\u00e9raux, qu\u2019ils ont \u00e9t\u00e9 laxistes \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e9gard de la criminalit\u00e9 et que leur approche \u00e9tait erron\u00e9e. Ils doivent faire preuve de plus d\u2019humilit\u00e9. Ils doivent mettre un peu plus d\u2019eau dans leur vin et faire compl\u00e8tement marche arri\u00e8re.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8074656\" data-originallang=\"en\">Les forces de l\u2019ordre, les Canadiens et de nombreux experts affirment que c\u2019est un pas en avant, mais qu\u2019il faut faire de nombreux autres pas en avant pour r\u00e9gler le probl\u00e8me. Le travail n\u2019est pas termin\u00e9.</p>"
