Thanks very much, Mr. Chair.
I want to thank the minister and his entire team for being here today.
Minister, I was very pleased to hear you say in your opening statement that Bill C‑21 was part of a multipronged plan. That plan includes investments in activities for young people to prevent them from joining street gangs, but also historic investments amounting to $321 million to strengthen our borders. That point is a source of pride in my riding of Vaudreuil—Soulanges. As you know, the CBSA officer training centre is located there, in Rigaud.
Please tell us how important those investments are in preventing illegal firearms from entering Canada.
