Thank you, Madam Chair.
I will also be putting a motion on notice:
Whereas new data shows that homicides in Canada have increased 27% and the homicide rate has increased from 1.71 to 1.94 per 100,000 Canadians since 2015, the committee undertake a study on the causes of homicide in Canada of no less than three meetings; and that the committee report its findings and recommendations to the House.
With my remaining time, I will ask this: Where are the majority of these transnational organized crime groups coming from? What countries are they tied to, generally?
