I agree with Tom Clement with the getting smart on crime policy.

Aside who floats the bill for prisons that may or may not get filled problem, when Harper is talking about getting tough on crime by increasing sentences and building more prisons, what is that twit doing about ensuring convictions? Hm?

Remember that report you did about the drug dealer who was caught red handed with narcotics, only to be released with his merchandise because the police forgot to read him his rights? Instead of those prisons that may not get filled, he should be spending money on those POV cameras like they have on that crime reality show Police POV or whatever it's called. Then video evidence that no good defence lawyer can sweet talk his way out of.

Or a while back that a lawyer tried to get his client off of a dangerous driving conviction for excessive speed because he claimed that his client's privacy was violated because the police used the air bag system in the perp's car, that was in the police impound and therefore under police jurisdiction, without a warrant.

And there's also Vic Toews' internet monitoring policy that not only unjustly invades our privacy, but is totally ineffective as all it does is saves one step out of millions to nail the perp. In other words, pointlessly violating the Constitution.

Oh yeah, and Harper gets tough on crime by cutting forensics that is a major player in trying to figure out who did it like on CSI.

Any wonder why I voted for the other guy?

"The Harper's plan to get tough on crime"
Now, there is a perfect example of a double negative...."Harper's plan"..."tough on crime"
If their "plans" resemble anything like their plan to buy F-35's and be anywhere out in the economics by $10-15,000,000,000.00 Billion dollars...AND then out and out "Lie to the Canadian public taxpayers".....

Bob replies: Apparently you missed the part where the 15 was jets only, and the 25 included other expenses.
