Mr. Speaker, I would like to thank the hon. member not just for her question but for her advocacy.
Handguns are the number one type of gun used in shooting homicides across the country. We are taking action to make sure that handguns do not fall into the hands of criminals by requiring stronger background checks and investing more to stop illegal gun trafficking at the border.
We will continue to engage our provincial partners, such as the Province of Quebec, as part of our national approach to tackling handgun crime.
