Mr. Speaker, we are glad that the House has resumed because it is absolutely vital that we talk about guns. That was the big news story this summer in Montreal. There was one shooting after another happening almost every day. Just last Tuesday, there were four shootings in a single evening. Here is what Mayor Plante had to say: “I have no control over the most important element, and that is the guns on our territory”. I want to ask the federal government the same question she did, word for word: “What is it doing to protect us and prevent these weapons from ending up in the hands of our young people?”
