One of your Conservative government’s top priorities over the last year has been to make our streets safer.
To do this we:
• Strengthened Canada’s national DNA database, with Bill S-2
• Improved the National Sex Offender Registry, again Bill S-2
• Eliminated the two for one credit for time served, Bill C-25
• Introduced Sebastian’s law to require courts to consider adult sentences for youth convicted of the most serious crimes, Bill C-4
• Cracked down on gang crime, Bills S-10, and C-14
These bills are just one part of the work we’ve been doing to keep criminals behind bars. Canadians deserve to have safe streets– and effective laws help keep our streets safe.

Saving for retirement is one of the biggest financial challenges that many Canadians face. That’s one reason why your Conservative government is creating the registered pooled pension plan.
Millions of Canadians do not have access to private sector pension plans; particularly Canadians who work for small businesses or are self-employed.
The proposed new pension plan will allow these businesses to team up and pool their resources using a registered financial institution and allow the self-employed to participate.
As a result, millions of Canadians (who either work for small and medium-sized businesses or are self-employed) will have access to good, affordable, secure pension plans for the first time. This is one practical step your Conservative government is taking to provide economic security for millions of Canadians.
