Minister, while I applaud the work of CBSA in interdicting illegal firearms from non-compliant travellers and from organized crime, clearly it's not enough. We are still seeing many firearms brought to Canada that are being smuggled and we're seeing the government pursue a course of action to seize the firearms of law-abiding firearms owners, spending upwards of a billion dollars or more in this effort. We're seeing, as you said, $40 million for the border.
Why is this government spending a billion dollars on a gun buyback that law enforcement and community groups are saying will not work, instead of spending more money on getting youth out of crime, disrupting organized crime and stopping the flow of illegal guns at the border?
