Madam Speaker, my colleague has pointed out an extremely important problem that exists in Montreal, Quebec and across the country. I would like to understand one thing. If my colleague is concerned about violence linked to firearms, why do the Conservatives systematically block measures that would make it easier to control firearms in Canada? Our government introduced Bill C‑21 to put a stop to handgun sales across the country, but the Conservatives are against it.

Madam Speaker, I am pleased to answer a second question about gun violence. I am surprised that the Conservatives are asking this question. The rates of violence against women and children have been on the rise for many years. Why are the Conservatives against better gun control measures in this country?
