00:00:00.000 Mr. Speaker, the government has the wrong target when it comes to public safety.
00:00:04.220 They're banning hundreds—in fact, we don't know exactly how many, because their officials
00:00:09.700 can't tell us—of lawful, previously legal hunting rifles and shotguns that are used
00:00:16.640 by First Nations, by farmers, and by rural people right across the country.
00:00:21.420 Meanwhile, last week, a man who was convicted of second-degree murder had been released
00:00:26.580 early and is now re-arrested for 51 counts of trafficking firearms.
00:00:33.920 Why won't they go after this criminal and others like him instead of targeting Grandpa
00:00:38.340 Joe's hunting rifle in Cape Breton?
00:00:40.300 The Honourable Prime Minister.
00:00:43.640 Mr. Speaker, Canadians are united around the need to see communities safer.
00:00:50.140 Most Canadians understand that that means eliminating the guns that are most dangerous.
00:00:55.140 Those guns are designed to kill the largest number of people in the shortest amount of
00:00:59.860 time.
00:01:00.860 That's why, two years ago, we moved forward with a ban on assault-style weapons.
00:01:04.480 But we also know that we need to ensure that that ban stays in place.
00:01:09.420 And that's why we're moving forward with a definition to define assault-style weapons.
00:01:13.900 We will continue to consult with Canadians and all parliamentarians to ensure that we're
00:01:19.940 capturing the right weapons.
00:01:21.260 But we will, Mr. Speaker, keep Canadians safe.
00:01:23.300 The rightful leader of the opposition.
00:01:25.020 Mr. Speaker, only he's not capturing the right weapons, according to his very own Liberal
00:01:29.140 MP for the Yukon, who said, this is really upsetting.
00:01:32.020 Many, many Yukoners regularly hunt either as a food source or for recreational aspects of
00:01:39.020 hunting.
00:01:40.020 I'm not happy with this bill.
00:01:42.020 Other Liberal MPs have said likewise.
00:01:44.740 And the Prime Minister's own public servants have testified that hunting rifles will be
00:01:48.760 banned under his proposed amendment.
00:01:50.480 Now that he's been caught with his real agenda, which is to go after hunters and farmers rather
00:01:56.480 than gun smugglers and gangsters, will he reverse himself and promise never again to go after
00:02:02.420 our hunters in this country?
00:02:03.480 The right Honourable Prime Minister.
00:02:07.200 Mr. Speaker, while Conservative politicians continue to fear-monker and share disinformation,
00:02:13.200 we're doing the work necessary to keep Canadians safe.
00:02:16.200 We will continue to consult on the list because, yes, we are not interested in going after guns 0.68
00:02:22.200 that are typically used for hunting and protecting farms.
00:02:27.920 We're going to continue to make sure that we're banning the most dangerous weapons that
00:02:32.960 were designed to kill the people in the shortest amount of time.
00:02:36.840 That is something, unfortunately, the Conservatives want to make legal assault-style weapons again,
00:02:42.080 Mr. Speaker.
00:02:43.080 And that's why they're in the pockets of the gun lobby and that's why we're standing strong.
00:02:45.920 Honourable Leader of the Opposition.
00:02:47.920 Well, you know, we all wondered how it was possible for this government to build up a 2.2-million-person
00:02:53.920 backlog in the immigration system, and now we've found a clue.
00:02:57.600 There are 60,000 people whose cases have been handed over to employees that no longer work
00:03:05.520 for the government.
00:03:06.520 You can just imagine someone calling up and saying, I'd like to speak to Jack, he's my
00:03:10.020 case officer, I've been waiting for my immigration, and they say, oh, Jack hasn't been here in 10
00:03:14.520 years.
00:03:15.520 No wonder things are delayed for so long.
00:03:18.520 These are people who are separated from their families, refugees who need to get here quickly 1.00
00:03:22.520 for their safety.
00:03:23.520 How could the government have been so careless?
00:03:25.520 The Right Honourable Prime Minister.
00:03:28.520 Mr. Speaker, we continue to grow our immigration system.
00:03:32.520 We continue to transform it and modernize it so that it's able to respond to the needs
00:03:38.520 of people who want to become Canadians and contribute to our society.
00:03:43.520 That's why we're investing in our system to provide a modern client experience and more
00:03:47.520 efficient immigration system.
00:03:49.520 And modernizing our immigration system is about putting people at the heart of everything
00:03:53.520 we do.
00:03:54.520 And we will continue to be there and resolve any technical issues.
00:03:58.520 The Honourable Leader of the Opposition.
00:04:00.520 Well, from incompetence to bad ethics, we have another Liberal Minister found guilty of
00:04:05.520 violating the Ethics Act, this time for giving a $23,000 contract to one of her best
00:04:13.520 friends at a company called Pomp and Circumstances.
00:04:18.520 It reminds us of the Prime Minister giving a half billion dollars to an organization called
00:04:22.520 the WE Charity that gave his family a half million dollars.
00:04:26.520 So, Mr. Speaker, will this Minister be held accountable and will she be required to pay
00:04:30.520 back the $23,000 in improper contracting that she gave out?
00:04:35.520 The Right Honourable Prime Minister.
00:04:38.520 Mr. Speaker, in this House there's a lot of debate and back and forth, but every now and
00:04:42.520 then there's an opportunity for Canadians to weigh in directly on what's going on in
00:04:46.520 federal politics.
00:04:47.520 And yesterday, the residents of Mississauga Lakeshore had a choice.
00:04:52.520 They could choose between the Conservative Party's politics of division and reckless proposals
00:04:58.520 that included recommending you opt out of inflation by investing in crypto or our government's
00:05:03.520 approach of being there for Canadians every step of the way and putting more money back
00:05:08.520 in their pockets.
00:05:09.520 Well, Mr. Speaker, the people of Mississauga Lakeshore have spoken and elected a Liberal Member
00:05:14.520 of Parliament.
00:05:15.520 Take on God away.
00:05:16.520 Take on God away.
00:05:17.520 Help us不能 to make schools of opportunity for Canadians...
00:05:18.520 They call you on God.
00:05:19.520 Thank you.
