Thank you, Mr. Chair.
My first question is for Mr. Gaudreault.
Before getting to Ms. Irons' even more serious case, let's start with more conventional cases regarding the means of suicide.
You said that the acquisition and possession of firearms is a privilege and not a right.
Suicide triggers vary greatly. We understand that mental illness can be one of them. That said, losing a job or undergoing a separation can be a very serious event, more or less serious according to a person's level of tolerance; such events can trigger depression and a series of events that can lead to suicide.
Should we systematically verify whether the person who is experiencing a crisis has firearms in their possession, and if so, automatically remove them from him? Should this be a quasi-automatic procedure?
