Report From Parliament Hill

Eric Melillo, MP, Kenora Riding

Dear Constituents

After nine years, there is yet more proof that the NDP-Liberal government is not worth the crime. Justin Trudeau attempted to brag about banning firearms from law-abiding firearms owners while continuing to ignore the crime wave he has unleashed across the country.
As a result, the Toronto Police Association had to fact-check him and point out that shootings are up 45% and gun-related homicides are up 62% in Toronto in just the last year.
Violent gun crime is up 116% across Canada under this NDP-Liberal government, after falling significantly under the previous Conservative government.
This ban is not about handguns, or so-called “assault-style firearms”, this is about the Liberals taking the next step in their plan to confiscate grandpa’s hunting rifle.
The government is making life easier for violent criminals by repealing mandatory minimum sentences for gun crimes, making it easier to get bail, and failing to stop the flow of illegal guns across the US border.
Only Common Sense Conservatives will stop the crime and bring home safe communities 
for Canadians.
