House Hansard - 280

44th Parl. 1st Sess.
February 12, 2024 11:00AM
Context: House Hansard - 280 - Feb/12/24
Mr. Eric Melillo (Kenora, CPC)
moved for leave to introduce Bill C-376, An Act to amend the Criminal Code (orders prohibiting the possession of weapons). He said: Madam Speaker, it is my honour to introduce my private member's bill today, which simply would amend the Criminal Code to institute a mandatory weapons prohibition for all individuals convicted of a violent indictable offence. This is a common-sense approach to target violent offenders, given the alarming increase in violent crime we have seen across the country. I look forward to debating this in greater detail when the time comes and having the support, hopefully, of colleagues on all sides of the House.
