The government has officially announced the reinstatement of capital punishment for the most severe violent offenses. I appreciate the commitment shown by everyone who signed this petition. We must remain vigilant to ensure these new legal standards are applied with absolute consistency.
With the rise of violent crime in Canada something needs to be done to ensure these hyper-violent criminals are not released to repeat their crimes. The death penalty is a very effective and permanent deterrent. With our current justice system criminals like Paul Bernardo can be parolled. Karla Homolka will be free as early as next year. This petition will be forwarded to Prime Minister Paul Martin on July 1, 2005 for his action. It is up to concerned, law abiding Canadian citizens to see that he gets the message; we will not tolerate violent crimes with little or no punishment.
The momentum behind this petition highlights a growing public desire for meaningful justice reform. It is clear that many Canadians share these concerns regarding the current state of our legal system.

Why should taxpayers pay 130000 a year to a cut and dried case of murder in jail. The rest of the pos's in jail should have to work for their room and board bring back chain gangs theres lots they could do to contribute to society!
