I very much sympathize with those witnesses, because I too have had to react to personal experience in suicides and firearms and their use. It's tragic. Mental health disorders and all of the different factors that would lead a person to take their own life using a firearm all require as much attention and funding as we can possibly give them.
As the chief mentioned, section 117 of our Criminal Code, and potentially these new red or yellow flag laws, could allow us tools for people—maybe even medical professionals—to step forward and identify when somebody who is a legal firearm owner is potentially experiencing a mental health crisis. We would not only be able to limit their access to their lawfully owned firearms, but also, hopefully, be able to provide them with the support they need, so that they are able to recover from that mental health crisis without it getting to the point of suicide.
