Bill Blair

I have never mentioned any plan of how to get rid of criminals. I don’t know. I want to hear how the conservatives plan to stop cross boarder smuggling. More officers, hands on checks of every car and transport crossing over.? More money to boarder services?Line ups for hours and hours to get across. Increasing the penalty for getting caught? What about on native land? Every one seems to mention that problem, what is his solution? He has not outlined anything. Just I have a plan. Well let’s hear it. .

There is huge demand for illegal guns in this countries cities. Common sense would ask why is there a huge demand that brings a flow of illegal guns into our country. I think any amount of common sense would suggest, if the demand is no longer there, the flow is no longer. Can you fill in the rest of the equation of how to stop the demand?

Voters should not have to fill in the blanks .Politicians who want to be elected ,should tell us their plan to prevent ‘demand ‘ if they want our vote.

Yeah.... bans worked so well on marijuana, cocaine, heroine... heck the reserves make a huge amount on smuggled cigarettes. Human trafficking comes up in my news feeds often.... they decided legalizing marijuana was the way to go... but legalizing carrying handguns... heck any self defence beyond crying in a corner and peeing yourself is frowned upon by the left... when you think about it they don't want you to defend yourself, they don't want you to think or be confident (just listen to CBC and do as told) ... they want you stoned and relying on them blindly for the thinking and given the W.E.F. 2030 agenda Trudeau said COVID is the opportunity they want you dependent on the gov't for all your possessions too. So essentially the equivalent of a serf.... maybe even call it the seigneurial system after the French system....

The only way to have an impact is longer sentences, better border controls (especially at reserves) and better legal repercussions like property seizure of the avails of crime etc. ... all things Libs stand against.

Common sense defined, thank you

With funding from Doug Ford, the police services created a relatively successful common sense program called "Project Community Space" last summer. Things like this work.
Like the fact it brings in question the 'bail' program that lets these guys back out onto the streets.

Officers arrested 463 people, laid a total of 1,145 charges and seized 247 guns during Project Community Space. The 15 week project, which began last summer.

Project include bail compliance checks

Of the 463 people arrested, 97 people were out on bail for firearm-related charges. Sixteen were charged with new weapons offences, while 81 were charged with other offences, including robbery, assault with a weapon and sexual assault.

Watts said police conducted 2,392 bail compliance checks and 88 offenders were found to be not complying with their bail conditions. A total of 46 of the 88 were arrested.

Of the 1,145 charges laid, 28 per cent were firearms-related, he added.

THE PROGRAM
Project Community Space took a three-pronged approach to reduce violent offences and firearm-related crimes in Toronto:

Increase police presence in “at-risk” neighbourhoods. The intention was that increasing police visibility would make residents feel safer and reduce criminal activity in these areas.
Community outreach. Toronto’s Guns and Gangs Task Force sought to better engage the community, providing community programs and informational sessions.
More proactive monitoring of bail compliance. Police were more active in checking to make sure people were following bail conditions. In particular, they focused on people on bail for firearms offences and violent crimes.
THE RESULTS
Even the most stringent critics should admit, Project Community Space did deliver results. In just under 4 months, hundreds of arrests were made as a result of the program:

463 Arrests
1145 Charges
317 Firearms-related charges
212 Breach of bail
121 Violent offences
495 Other

I would like the conservatives to say that in their election platform. So far nothing.

May I ask again, if you are running for office would you tell a group of your voters your coming after them to shut down their operation?
