There’s an awful lot to talk about today a first ofit kind Summit to deal with the rapid rise of car thefts a lowrisk high-reward criminal Enterprise fueled by new technologies that criminals are using to defeat high-tech anti- theft devices in modern vehicles in a lot of cases these vehicles are selling for
Double the retail value if they were sold here in Canada Federal ministers use the summit to boast about what Ottawa has already done outlawing for example some of the gadget criminals use to break into cars or giving Ontario $121 million to fight the problem and boosting the budget of the Canada Border
Services Agency by $28 million and more funding might be on the way we’ll have something to say and I mentioned this to my friend commissioner DM something to say about increased investments in the RCMP and their policing Partners the Trudeau government has boosted the maximum sentence for car theft from 18
Months to 2 years but but observers said that extra 6 months it’s not any deterrent the criminal code needs to be strengthened so that there are real consequences for vehicle thieves we need to see stiffer penalties we need to stop these criminals and the Prime Minister himself hinted his government would act
On that we’re also looking at further strengthening penalties for anyone who participates in auto theft while his ministers talk tough to organize crime we say time’s up Justin Trudeau is not worth the crime Federal politicians also use the Forum to take veiled shots at an opposition leader Pierre POV who is
Clearly getting under their skin we’re convening this Summit because Canadians need serious action a catchy slogan won’t stop auto theft with lines like this secure our ports and lock up the car thieves the summit also heard that one of the most important things that can be done is to
Share police intelligence with nonp police actors that would be shipping companies ways Port operators and so on that kind of collaboration the experts said is vital to stopping car theft Rings Donna okay David aen thank you
Federal politicians and police officers gathered in Ottawa for Canada’s first national summit on auto theft, a crime growing at an alarming rate across the country.
Officials say a vehicle is stolen somewhere in Canada every six minutes, resulting in roughly $1 billion in annual losses.
David Akin looks at the solutions pledged, why critics don’t think the proposed stiffer jail penalties will work and the further help being hinted at.

There's an awful lot to talk about regarding your governments abysmal record, Justin.
I sincerely hope the manager for this condo corporation / ycc46 is seeing this I am requesting To install bell cam and am having a hard time with the corporation. I lost parcels as recent as 7 Jan2024. I have already lost 7 parcels and they are quoting privacy. That privacy is for the thieves.
With great wokeness comes great irresponsibility.
This government wont stiffen penalties they think arresting criminals is racist..
Another Waste of time
Nothing will happen
Just a public band aid blah blah blah

Another summit for a photo-op at taxpayers' expense.
In other words the government is doing nothing but releasing dangerous criminals back on the streets. Never was like this before the highly corrupted liberal government

Saludos desde Nuevo Laredo Tamaulipas Mexico, excelente articulo periodístico, gracias ???
police and politicians are the fcking problem
Hilarious watching Justin scramble around trying to fix problems his government has ignored for years, or helped to cause.
If the auto manufacturers keep building cars with electronic features (keyless entry, keyless start, etc) then the high volume thieving problem will persist. It's just simply too easy for the thieves to get away with. Even if there are more cops around the ease at which these cars get stolen will give the thieves a head up and slip by the cops.
???????????????transportation and shipping companies would not share information with police because they would loose money. ??????????
The government should become more creative to stop crimes in Canada ??
I hate our current leadership
Across The United States ?? Mexico ?? New Zealand ?? Canada ?? And Australia ??
Where’s The Misdemeanor And Felony Charges And Sentencing Guidelines For Canada ?? Australia ?? Mexico ?? And New Zealand ??
stiffer penalty doesn't help when you cant catch anyone. Canadian Police isnt that good at catching criminals u know, but they r good at giving out tickets
What about the theft of honest taxpayers rights? What can be done about that and whos responsible……..hmmm
When will people gather to combat the corrupt politicians and police that run rampant across this country?
When is Trudeau going to jail he makes my stumuch sick
