Frank Caputo

Victims are tired of hearing that the parole board is independent.

Conservative MP Frank Caputo, a former parole officer, is now calling for legislative change.

That victims, especially of sexual crimes, are themselves living in a psychological prison for life.

I think we need to also shift our justice system to emphasize those victims' rights.

The fight over Shane Ertmode's temporary release is now moving from the parole board to Parliament.

All I've ever wanted to do is protect other children.

Let's move on.

Let's go to Conservative Member of Parliament Frank Caputo.

He yesterday was in a committee hearing and he confronted the public safety minister, Gary Anandasangri, over the fact that it's been over two months and we still don't know anything more about how a Canadian intern to NATO was caught spying.

How did somebody on behalf of the Canadian government get into NATO as a spy? Well, we were supposed to vet this person because it was a Canadian that we were sending to NATO.

Carney called it a cowardly act, saying, "It has no place in this country.

My thoughts are with everyone who is shaken and hurt by this disgusting display of hate." Premier of BC, David Eby, called it disgraceful and said, "This is not who we are as British Columbians." And here is what conservative MP for Kamloops-Thompson-Nicola, Frank Caputo, had to say about this.

We presented Gary Annisangri and Ruby Sahota with clear legislative changes that can make some minor changes that can reduce the victimization.

I was extremely happy that in the first week back in the House of Commons, and I thank Frank Caputo and Arkan Khanof of the Conservative Party, for asking those questions during question period, we are not going to stop attacking, pushing, and highlighting this travesty that's happening to these victims' families until something is changed.

It's ridiculous.

What's a theory, Clayton, among officers as to why this is not seen as some massive political loss? Politics is politics.

The District of Barrier applied for millions in grant funding, but it was unsuccessful.

Now it's hoping a petition started by MP Frank Caputo will lead to federal funding for this project, as the local tax base is too small.

We applied for the maximum, $7 million.

That's what a fire hall costs these days for a town our size.

about the shooting in Tumbler Ridge here in BC.

Well, joining me now to talk more about some of these stories is Frank Caputo, the Conservative MP for Kamloops, Thompson, Nicola, also the Shadow Minister for Public Safety.

Frank Caputo, can you hear me? All right, so we are going to try and...

Yes, I've got you there.

There you are.

The other place I think that the government needs to pivot is on Bill C-5, which was passed last parliament.

Oh, we seem to have lost you again.

Frank Caputo, are you there? Can
