Parliament Today: Conservative crime motion leads a supply-day agenda ANALYSIS 9 OCTOBER 2026 With no government bills called, the Commons day turns on a Conservative opposition motion citing Statistics Canada crime figures since 2015.
Also on the supply file: a deferred recorded division on Pierre Poilievre’s affordability motion is set for Monday, October 19, and the Order Paper marks Thursday, October 22, as the third allotted day of the current supply period.
Overall violent crime has increased by 50% The Scheer motion is framed entirely around numbers.
It asks the House to note that, according to Statistics Canada, since 2015 overall violent crime has risen 50 percent, violent firearms offences 116 percent, homicides 28 percent, gang-related homicides 78 percent, sexual assaults 74 percent, auto thefts 46 percent and extortions 357 percent.
The motion has been on notice since June 6, 2025, and the version printed on today’s Order Paper is truncated, so the operative request to the House—what the government is being asked to do—is not fully reproduced in the material available.
