Residents of Oshawa and Canadians from coast to coast are counting on your support.
The Liberal government has failed to reform Canada's broken bail system over the past 11 years.
Since the Liberals were elected in 2015, violent crime is up 32% with 124,000 more reported incidents than when Conservatives were last in office. Gang-related murders are up 92% over the past 8 years across the Greater Toronto Area and youth firearms arrests have soared by 160%.
Isn't it time that your federal government prioritized the rights of law-abiding citizens, victims, and law enforcement officers over those of repeat violent offenders?
Canada's justice system must keep repeat violent offenders behind bars – where they belong. The standard for repeat violent offenders must be jail not bail.

I'm most grateful for your time and support.
The Petition
Whereas increasing numbers of Canadians feel uneasy walking their neighbourhood streets or taking public transit;
Whereas, in November 2022, the Trudeau government passed into law Bill C-5 which repealed mandatory minimum sentences for gun crimes and, simultaneously, expanded the use of house arrest for violent criminals – allowing many to serve their sentences in the very communities they terrorized; and,
And whereas all 13 provincial and territorial Premiers – along with every major Canadian police association – have called on federal legislators to end catch-and-release justice,
Therefore
We call upon the Prime Minister and his government to end the cycle of catch-and-release justice by urgently reforming Canada's bail system.
