Vic Danger – Third Eye. Toews doesn’t know ‘statistics’. But he sure knows fear.

Vic Toews doesn’t let reality get in the way of a good ideology (emphasis mine).

“I don’t know if the statistics demonstrate that crime is down,” he said.

“I’m focused on danger.” Toews said his concern is that the public is in danger as long as criminals walk the streets. The government’s crime bill, Bill C-10, addresses that concern, he said.

“If there’s a danger to them, that danger needs to be addressed and this legislation addresses that,” Toews said

His answers, though, did not impress all members of the committee, who wanted Toews, and Justice Minister Rob Nicholson, to answer more questions about the crime bill as it makes its way through the Senate.

“Let’s be serious now,” Conservative Sen. Pierre Claude Nolin said as the two cabinet ministers got up to leave. “You’re afraid, minister.”
