Thank you, Madam Chair.
Once again, Minister, thank you for taking the time to appear before the committee. You are very available to this committee, and we are very grateful to you.
There is a very serious scourge raging these days in Quebec, particularly in the Montreal metropolitan area. I'm talking about shootings. Day after day, we see shootings related to criminalized groups, and there are deaths. They happen because gun trafficking is very prolific. Today, it's almost easier for criminalized groups to buy a gun than a pint of milk at the corner store.
We have been told that a quarter of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, or RCMP, officers deployed in Quebec are managing the Roxham Road instead of dealing with gun trafficking at the border.
Minister, when will you ensure that the safe third country agreement is suspended?
