Of the Five Eyes countries that have prohibited these rifles, none have experienced mass shootings this year. The other countries are averaging one mass shooting per day.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6664089\" data-originallang=\"en\">Our plan to protect our communities is working, but we need to finish the job. With our new legislation, we will complete the prohibition and ensure that these rifles never re-enter our communities again.</p>",
        "fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"6664087\" data-originallang=\"en\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, je tiens \u00e0 remercier la d\u00e9put\u00e9e de <a data-HoCid=\"253003\" href=\"/politicians/helena-jaczek/\" title=\"Helena Jaczek\">Markham\u2014Stouffville</a> pour ses efforts soutenus afin de rendre les collectivit\u00e9s plus s\u00fbres dans son coin de pays et partout sur notre territoire.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6664088\" data-originallang=\"en\">Demain marquera le premier anniversaire de l'interdiction des armes con\u00e7ues pour un usage militaire. Autrement dit, il y a d\u00e9j\u00e0 un an que nous sommes all\u00e9s au-del\u00e0 des pri\u00e8res et des principes pour passer v\u00e9ritablement \u00e0 l'action. Au cours de la derni\u00e8re ann\u00e9e, aucune fusillade n'a eu lieu dans les pays membres du Groupe des cinq qui ont interdit ces armes, alors que les autres pays sont aux prises avec une fusillade par jour en moyenne.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6664089\" data-originallang=\"en\">Notre plan pour prot\u00e9ger nos communaut\u00e9s fonctionne, mais nous devons terminer le travail. Les nouvelles mesures l\u00e9gislatives que nous proposons visent \u00e0 renforcer l'interdiction de mani\u00e8re \u00e0 garantir que ces armes ne circulent plus jamais dans nos rues.</p>"
