Scheer said that the current sentences, which range based on the offence, are often too short. The Conservatives would update the laws to would make it so that sentences for these kinds of crimes take into account the length and severity of the abuse by adding aggravating factors to the Criminal Code.The latest pre-election campaign proposal from the opposition leader was unveiled in Quebec.
During his remarks Scheer said that in 2017 there were more than 8,000 cases of sexual violation of children in Canada, and that the current Liberal government has not tabled any legislation aimed at cracking down on the criminals who commit these offences., under the previous Conservative government in 2012, there were approximately 14,000 child and youth victims of sexual offences.
What is the distinction for “serious” crimes? I’ve worked it’s 10,000s of survivors & “justice” from the courts is often not top-of-mind. The abusers are their dads, brothers, husbands, etc. We need a survivor-responsive policy, not your usual lock them away stance AndrewScheer
A schrear led government will decimate Canada more then what ole fordskin has done to manage to fuck Ontario
Before both side rant away is this say 5 years for parent smaking their child in the butt or 5 years for an actual evil person like child molester or someone who sell children. Also you right wing nut bars you do realize Trump & GOP curently have children in cages slepping floor
Smart. Need common sense back in Canada
Wow. Can’t believe the liberals are opposed to this
If Mr Scheer was genuinely concerned about these issues why has he not brought any legislation to the HoC? Any member of parliament can introduce a bill at any time
Would that include RCMP who abuse Indigenous children
Can the minimum be a death sentence?
But what will Scheer do to combat child sexual abuse? Ban abortion so little girls will be forced to give birth to their abuser’s child? Because that’s what his 💵supporters💵want....forcing a child to give birth to children is child abuse itself. ScheerHatesWomen
Lefties will be upset over rights of child abusers
5 years! Thank you so much. What a leader
I'm only here to see the lefty loonies come up with reasons this is bad.
Moronic con supporters in here....too funny. Thankfully Scheer's mouth and lack of real policy will ensure a 2nd term for JT.
Mandatory sentences don't work. That's why we have judges.
Remember how Trudeau attacked Scheer for criticizing the child killer going to the minimum security healing lodge. Imagine how upset Trudeau will be over this.
Child abuse and neglect are criminal offences investigated by police officers and prosecuted in criminal courts These sentences shoud also apply to any child protection worker who has contact with the family or the abuser
Justin's friends are going to be upset.
Great can we charge MacLeodLisa for her policies?
Ooooh! That's some hard-hitting policy, Mr. Scheer.

Scheer’s Economic Pitch: An Energy Corridor To Get Pipelines BuiltAndrew Scheer pitches energy corridor to get pipelines built No thanks, not if he threatens to cut-off supply to Canadian provinces. If he is going to engage in exertion and strong arming tactics against captive customers, them I'm afraid we must insist on healthy competition in the sector. BC can't afford the concentration risk! This is a red herring that his media backers keep pushing! It’s DOA! Provinces and indigenous groups are calling it a “pipe dream”! There are also vows of years of legal battles but those that love CONservatives will keep throwing this out there!! That would be believable if there were the refineries to process heavy oil in the East, but there isn’t and it makes no sense investing them now, this late in the fossil fuel game. So the pipelines would be for export, just as they’re planned to be.

Scheer vows criminal crackdown on human trafficking in election pledgeConservative Leader Andrew Scheer is promising funding for police, survivor services and public awareness to fight human trafficking. Does that mean he will no longer support his “friends” the Saudis who are the number one consumer of trafficked people? What an original idea.

Tories won't reopen abortion issue: ScheerConservative Leader Andrew Scheer says his party won't reopen the abortion issue if it forms the next government. I wish people would quit comparing what is going on in the US with the Tories. If you think they're the same, investigate a bit would ya? Tories state they won't reopen abortion issue. But no one believes them as they attend pro-life demonstrations, pro-life American movies, and pro-life states they are getting the support of the CPC. Nice lie Andy. Trudeau is using the policies of a foreign government to emotionally and psychologically manipulate Canadians over an issue which has nothing to do with this country at all. Scheer didn't start this conversation. The Trudeau 'Liberals' did because they think Canadians are stupid
