I have one last question, and it's about assault weapons.

You know as well as I do that the May 2020 order didn't ban all military‑style assault weapons. Retailers can circumvent these regulations by bringing new weapons to market, for example.

When the government introduced its Bill C‑21, it promised that it would amend its own bill to include a section banning all assault weapons.

Do you think the government will keep its promise and make that amendment to Bill C‑21?
