"Stock" as his friends call him, is the first MP in recent history not to have attended University. He is also a fundamentalist Christian who believes that the Earth is only 6000 years old.

Statistics and facts mean nothing to these people. It's all about revenge, retribution and getting votes even if they have to lie about crime. Canada has, for instance, one of the lowest murder rates in the world. Vote NDP.

Dear Mr. Stockwell Day, thank you for allowing our construction company to build your prison. Please find enclosed one million dollars in "gift form" for your efforts towards sending my children to university. I look forward to doing business with you in the future; hope to see you at the family picnic.

They want to make all forms of natural foods, natural supplements, and all medicinal herbs--especially if they're safe, non-toxic, effective and UNPATENTABLE--so illegal that you'll do YEARS in prison for even thinking about them.

Cannabis is an excellent example, as more scientific & medical facts roll in, police and politicians IGNORE IT ALL, in favour of keeping up the very profitable LIES they've been telling for decades.

Human life is more important than stealing public funds, IMHO...

there is a thing called unreported crime and the rates of such are very high. What he is saying is true. i hope the maker of the video didn't cut some parts of the video. bc u can really change how the message is conveyed due to alterations. the sum of money proposed does seem high but that is a different question.

Stupid liberals! Crime rates going down doesnt mean criminals are softer on crime or that they're all in jail! Prison overpopulation is a big problem even if a stupid crime rate is going down, duh!

Were you also aware that the Conservative Party believes that drug and alcohol addiction are sins that can be cured by prayer?

There is one reference that I think backs up the theme of what Stockwell Day is referring to on a larger scale. It is an American source that appeared on 60 Minutes a couple of years ago in a segment by Anderson Cooper. It said that a widespread problem over the past several years of people in inner cities losing confidence in police causing less than 10% of inner city residents wanting to co-operate as witnesses. This is due to abuse from police. Discuss at facebook "BC Police Contract 2012"

Nobody trusts the police anymore, so they don't report crimes unless it's really important to them personally. And even then, they often don't. Maybe that's what he is referring to.

And these clowns are leading in the polls. No, really.

Oh that's a good one. Does a Lepracon have to declair his pot o' gold findings as income on a T5A form?

@gundamWWW A crime that results in a pre-trial settlement still COUNTS as a crime. It's not as if it's the criminal justice equivalent of an "unearned run" in baseball, for God's sake.

Just admit that Canada's crime rate really is falling already.
