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?

  • Re: Bill C-21 
Madam Speaker, I am tabling a petition on behalf of residents from Kelowna—Lake Country and the surrounding area in relation to the government bill, Bill C-21, on firearms. It is quite lengthy, but I will go right to the asks of the government. They are asking for the government to, first, stop targeting law-abiding hunters, sport shooters and farmers with gun legislation; second, immediately withdraw the amendments tabled on November 22, 2022, at the Standing Committee on Public Safety and National Security; and last, withdraw the existing bill, Bill C-21, and restart consultations with the firearms community, firearms owners and public safety experts.
