Mr. Speaker, if Conservative Party members were serious about going after crime, they would support our freeze on handguns. They would support the fact that we have banned assault-style weapons, which is something they continue to avoid, dodge, and spread misinformation and disinformation on. The reality is that we have continued to invest in police when the Conservative government before me cut services and funding to police. They cut services to CBSA. They cut initiatives that actually kept Canadians safe, and now they are just in the pockets of the NRA.

Mr. Speaker, members cannot be serious about keeping our communities safe if they stand against gun control. That is consistently what the Conservatives have done, by spreading misinformation and disinformation when we are going after assault-style weapons, putting a freeze on handguns, and not going after law-abiding hunters and fishers. They are using that to try to scare people, when the reality is that keeping Canadians safe requires a multi-faceted approach. It means investing more in CBSA, which has doubled the number of interdicted guns coming across the border.
