Mr. Speaker, gun violence is becoming more and more of a problem in Montreal, and women and youth are the victims.
We must reduce illegal access to firearms to improve public safety. As a government, we owe it to Canadians to implement measures to prevent firearms from being illegally diverted and to address all the ways in which that is happening. It takes investments and government collaboration to deal with theft, straw purchases and cross-border smuggling.
Can the Minister of Public Safety inform the House of the measures the government is taking to protect Quebeckers from illegally smuggled firearms?
