Mr. Speaker, military-style assault rifles have been banned since the seventies.
The Prime Minister held a press conference with a big scary gun on the front of his podium four years ago and still has not been able to figure out how to ban that scary-looking cartoon gun. With 1,500 guns under amnesty to this day, he says he will not be able to figure out how to do it for at least another three years.
Will the Prime Minister stop his made-in-Hollywood approach to crime and actually lock up the hard criminals so that we can stop the crime?

Mr. Speaker, I will contradict him because they are not banned right now. It is perfectly legal for people to possess those guns. They are easy to possess.
The answer to the question is that he has not seized a single, solitary one of them. He has spent 40 million tax dollars that could have secured our ports and our borders, and he has not taken in a single, solitary gun.
Is that why gun crime has risen by 100% since he became Prime Minister nine years ago?

Mr. Speaker, all those weapons are still legal. One can still own them.
The Prime Minister says he is going to seize them. He is going to buy them. He has spent $40 million doing that.
I am going to ask this again: How many guns has he bought, just the number?

Mr. Speaker, he mentioned all the guns that he claims to have banned and that he promised to seize four years and $40 million ago.
How many has he seized?

Mr. Speaker, there is more stumbling and bumbling. The guns he talked about are not banned, and he says they will not be banned until one week after the next election because he cannot figure how to ban them years after he announced it. Meanwhile, he is spending billions of dollars going after licensed, law-abiding, trained and tested people, who have proven they are statistically the least likely to commit crime, and what has been the consequence? In eight years, we have had a 100% increase in criminal shootings.
Why does he always go after the good guys instead of putting the bad guys in jail?

Mr. Speaker, he stumbles and bumbles when he does not know what he is talking about, and he does not know what he is talking about because he does not care about what he is talking about.
He has still not banned those guns years, after promising on the election trail that he would. They are still legally in the possession of their owners at this stage. He says he will not be able to do it until a week after the next election. Meanwhile, he tried to publish 300 pages of hunting rifles he wanted to ban, blaming first nations hunters for crime in downtown Toronto.
Why does he want to protect turkeys from hunters instead of Canadians from criminals?

Mr. Speaker, he banned BB guns, paint guns and the hunting rifles of indigenous and rural Canadians, but enough about that. Let us just have the facts. Under the Conservative government, violent crime went down 22%. Under the Prime Minister, it has gone up 32%. There has been a 92% increase in violent gang crime under the Prime Minister. Those are the facts.
Will he listen to the facts and the common sense and go after the real violent criminals, instead of targeting law-abiding rifle owners and hunters?

Mr. Speaker, of course, we are all in solidarity in ending the violence committed with guns. In fact, today we saw an example of the real problem. Police seized 62 firearms in Toronto and 57 of them came from the United States of America. Only one of them was from Ontario and it was stolen over a year ago.
The problem is not hunters in Wainwright, Alberta or in Happy Valley-Goose Bay on the east coast, who are using their tools to feed their families. The problem is the illegal guns coming across the border.
Why will the government not reinforce our border instead of attacking our hunters?

Mr. Speaker, he is doing nothing to take dangerous guns off the street. In fact, 82% of guns used in crime in Toronto, according to the city's police, come smuggled across the border. He has done nothing about that, but he wants to spend another billion dollars going after rifles and shotguns that are specifically designed and used by hundreds of thousands of law-abiding and licensed Canadians for hunting. These are law-abiding people who have been vetted by the RCMP.
Why does he keep targeting the lawful people rather than keeping the illegal guns out?

Mr. Speaker, I get my information from the amendment that the Prime Minister's government tabled in the committee. I have it right here, a list of the firearms that he wants to ban. It includes the Webley & Scott wildfowl gun, fowl as in wild turkeys and wild ducks. That is right in the list that his government put forward of guns he wants to ban.
Why is he more concerned with protecting wild turkeys from hunters than he is concerned about protecting Canadians from criminals?
