Surrey Liberal MP Sukh Dhaliwal on Wednesday defended his letter of support for a convicted international drug trafficker, saying he was just trying to push for rehabilitation of serious criminals when he wrote to a U.S. judge on behalf of Ranjit Singh Cheema.

The Harper government introduced a confidence motion Thursday on its anti-crime bill. It called on the Liberal-dominated senate to speed up passage of the act. Conservatives are threatening to force an election on the issue, if the senate does not move quickly enough.
Bill C-2, the Tackling Violent Crime Act, which consists of five bills dealing with violent crimes, dangerous offenders, and the age of sexual consent, passed the House of Commons in late November, just before a Christmas break that ended in late January.
The Conservatives confidence motion calls on the Senate to pass the bill by no later than March 1.
It's deeds, not words.
Here in BC, our provincial NDP is talking tough yet opposing a remand center in Burnaby.
NIMBY at its finest.
