Conservatives push for a 'three-strikes' law, tougher sanctions for domestic violence

The Conservatives are pushing for a "three strikes" law to deny bail to repeat offenders and tougher sanctions for domestic violence.

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre made crime a central focus of his election campaign in the spring, and on Thursday he brought that message to the House of Commons.

The Conservatives brought forward a motion calling on the government to introduce what they call a "three-strikes-and-you're-out" law to prevent people convicted of three "serious" offences from getting bail, probation, parole or house arrest.
