Mr. Speaker, it is incredible that we are hearing the same old empty rhetoric.
Quebec is willing to go to court to prevent the destruction of data from the firearms registry. It is the only way the provinces have of being heard because the government is completely out of touch and refuses to listen, in the same way that it refuses to listen to the chiefs of police and victims. And now, to defend its ideology, the government is going to engage in a very costly legal battle.
Why is the government persisting with the wrong approach instead of co-operating with the provinces?
