Mr. Speaker, it is the police themselves who are saying that the policies of the Liberal government are a failure. Conservatives are listening to police who know the facts about gun violence, public safety and the real impact in our communities.
Following the Prime Minister's out-of-touch comments, the Surrey Police Union stated, “The federal handgun freeze fails to address the real issue: the surge of illegal firearms coming across our borders and ending up in the hands of violent criminals.”
Eighty-five per cent of seized firearms are traced back to the United States, so why does the Prime Minister not listen to our law enforcement agents by starting to crack down on smuggled guns from the U.S.?
