As a parliamentarian, I truly believe that the first order of business for Canadians, for parliamentarians, is to keep citizens safe. That should be job one. There should be no reason that people could not walk in their own community, day or night, safely. They should not be afraid to be out and about at any time of the day or night. </p>",

En tant que d\u00e9put\u00e9, je crois sinc\u00e8rement que le premier point \u00e0 l'ordre du jour des Canadiens, des parlementaires, c'est d'assurer la s\u00e9curit\u00e9 des citoyens. Ce devrait \u00eatre la priorit\u00e9. Rien ne devrait justifier que les gens ne puissent pas se promener en toute s\u00e9curit\u00e9 dans leur collectivit\u00e9, en plein jour ou la nuit. Ils ne devraient pas avoir peur de sortir, peu importe l'heure du jour ou de la nuit.</p>"
