Mr. Speaker, today I join the member for Cape Breton—Canso in remembering the lives of those who have been impacted by gun violence.
Since forming government, we have taken action by passing legislation that enhances background checks and helps law enforcement through better data collection. We have also delivered on our promise to prohibit tactical assault weapons, which have no place in our society, and we will continue to strengthen gun control by stopping guns at our border, preventing theft and criminal diversion, and introducing red flag laws.
We do not work for the gun lobby. We work for Canadians, and we will work relentlessly to keep them safe.
