Petition to the Government of Canada
- Reports indicate that one in four Canadians do not feel safe using public transit alone;
- As many as 3,000 assaults on public transit occur annually;
- More and more Canadians are feeling unsafe in their cities as violent crime increases;
- We have seen many cases where violent criminals have committed crimes while released on bail;
- Recent polls indicate that 57% of Canadians feel that the government is not doing enough to tackle the issue of crime;
- This government has failed to meaningfully address issues like addictions and mental health support, which are lacking in Canada;
- Canadians deserve to feel safe in their communities and the Liberal government must act.
