Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre says his party will introduce the “Jail Not Bail Act” to make it more difficult for those accused of serious crimes to receive bail.
The legislation would modify Canada’s justice system by eliminating the requirement for judges to release individuals accused of crimes at the “earliest reasonable opportunity and on the least onerous conditions possible,” a stipulation that was established under Liberal Bill C-75, Poilievre said during a Sept. 11 press conference in Woodbridge, Ont.
