The Liberal government says its new legislation that aims to strengthen bail and sentencing laws will help reduce automobile thefts, which rose by 25 percent in 2023.
“We’ve seen a troubling spike when it comes to auto theft and home invasions, including incidents of violence that we absolutely have to address in Canada,“ Justice Minister Sean Fraser said during an Oct. 24 press conference in Brampton, Ont. ”We don’t need to accept this as a fact of life. We can take action to promote safer communities when it comes to these significant crimes.”
