The priority was making sure those guns were no longer available to buy, to sell, to bequeath or to use. That has been the case for four years.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8363092\" data-originallang=\"en\">What the <a data-HoCid=\"291215\" href=\"/politicians/pierre-poilievre/\" title=\"Pierre Poilievre\">Leader of the Opposition</a> is conveniently refusing to opine on is the fact that he has committed to the gun lobby across this country that he would reverse the 2020 OIC, which banned those assault-style weapons. He wants to bring those assault-style weapons back, or he can contradict me right here.</p>",

Il veut donc ramener ces armes d'assaut, ou alors il peut me contredire ici m\u00eame.</p>"
