NANAIMO — How would local MP’s work with community organizations, law enforcement and government leaders to address repeat violent offenders, promote rehabilitation and ensure public safety?
NanaimoNewsNOW invited all 12 candidates running in a pair of mid-Island ridings to participate in a survey, asking them about their personal beliefs and opinions on key issues, as well as identify how they would serve as an MP if elected on April 28.
We asked candidates in Nanaimo-Ladysmith and Courtenay-Alberni a series of questions, providing them 250 words to respond by a Monday, April 14 deadline. Answers are not edited by NanaimoNewsNOW in any way, other than to trim any which are longer than the word limit.
The third of a three-part series asks: Many communities face challenges with repeat offenders in the criminal justice system. How would you work with local organizations, law enforcement, and community leaders to address these issues in a way that reduces these repeat offenders, promoting rehabilitation, while also ensuring public safety?
