    It was Stephen Harper that introduced consecutive sentencing. If you kill 4 people, you do 4 life sentences back to back. Today, if you kill multiple people, anything over 25 years is considered cruel and unusual punishment by the Supreme Court (all liberal appointed).

    A conservative government is more victim (or damage to society) based for justice, rather than a liberal offender based justice system.

    On a completely different note, it was Mulroney that brought us the free trade agreement with the USA, which we are just now realizing how important it is.
