00:00:16.140 I know, he happened, Mr. Speaker.
00:00:18.120 How can we make him unhappen and stop the crime?
00:00:25.840 The right honourable Prime Minister.
00:00:27.740 Mr. Speaker, in 2015, Stephen Harper presented a budget that had slashed funds for policing,
00:00:35.900 slashed funds for CBSA officers, slashed funding for Veterans Affairs Services,
00:00:42.360 and we were there to clean up the mess, to cut taxes for the wealthiest 1%,
00:00:47.020 lower them for the middle class, to support families,
00:00:50.420 to start moving forward on gun control in real ways
00:00:53.960 while the Conservatives rosy up to the American gun lobbies.
00:00:57.880 We've continued to step up and keep Canadians safe.
00:01:01.280 Let them bring assault weapons back to our streets. 0.62

00:01:18.160 Oh my goodness.
00:01:20.720 Screaming and hollering like that.
00:01:22.880 Mr. Speaker, it's his press release that says that in Toronto,
00:01:29.560 auto thefts are up 300% since he took office.

00:01:55.100 Speaker, the Leader of the Opposition has trouble believing
00:01:58.440 that we would actually include real facts in our press release,
00:02:03.480 something he and the Harper government never did for years.
00:02:07.460 Yes, Mr. Speaker, there is a real challenge around auto theft in this country.
00:02:11.860 And our solution is to roll up our sleeves, pull together partners from across the country
00:02:17.200 and get to solving it.
00:02:18.920 His solution, throw his hands up in the air, blame a raft of political attacks on us
00:02:26.180 and continue to see that he's not putting forward any real solutions.
00:02:31.560 Mr. Speaker.
