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.

Mr. Speaker, I rise on a point of order. There have been discussions among the parties, and I believe if you seek it, you will find unanimous consent for the following heartbreaking motion. I move: That the House express its horror at the school mass shooting in Uvalde, Texas, and extend its deepest condolences to the families, friends and communities who lost loved ones.
