However, she argued that Montreal needs stronger controls over guns on city streets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I think we can go further,&#8221; she said. &#8220;In a city like Montreal, we need to have a better control what&#8217;s happening in the streets in terms of gun control.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She suggested the federal government could explore additional restrictions aimed at reducing access to firearms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The mayor also spent considerable time discussing social media, arguing that graphic images shared after the shooting were harmful to victims&#8217; families and communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ferrada expressed concern about online radicalization, criminal recruitment, and what she described as increasingly toxic online discourse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-a-familiar-debate\">A Familiar Debate<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The comments immediately raised a question often heard after violent crimes: What specific gun law would have prevented this attack?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Canada already has many of the restrictions frequently promoted by <a href=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/federal-agents-search-former-reality-show-american-guns-gun-store\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"montreal-mayor-calls-for-more-gun-control\" title=\"Montreal Mayor Calls for More Gun Control\" data-wpil-monitor-id=\"7053\">American<\/a> gun-control advocates. The country requires firearm licensing, registration for certain firearms, magazine limits, background checks, and heavily restricts public carry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yet the attack still occurred.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That point was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mrcolionnoir.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"montreal-mayor-calls-for-more-gun-control\" title=\"Montreal Mayor Calls for More Gun Control\">highlighted<\/a> by commentator Colion Noir, who argued that the incident exposed the limits of relying solely on firearm regulations to stop determined criminals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In a recent video, Noir noted that the suspect allegedly ignored laws that were already on the books while ordinary citizens remained largely unable to <a href=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/hunt365-june-backcountry-carry-solution-sig-sauer-p320-xten-10mm\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"montreal-mayor-calls-for-more-gun-control\" title=\"Montreal Mayor Calls for More Gun Control\" data-wpil-monitor-id=\"7051\">carry firearms for self-defense<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-unanswered-question\">The Unanswered Question<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Canada\u2019s Gun Control Fantasy Just Met Reality\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Xq9Uje95sHQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As of this writing, investigators continue piecing together exactly what happened.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What is clear is that one police officer lost his life despite responding alongside trained and armed colleagues. A civilian also died during the incident.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Those facts make it difficult to argue that additional restrictions automatically translate into greater public safety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The reality is that violent criminals rarely concern themselves with licensing requirements, magazine limits, or firearm prohibitions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That doesn&#8217;t mean policymakers should stop searching for solutions. But it does raise an important question.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before demanding more gun control, officials should explain precisely which existing law failed, how a new law would have changed the outcome, and why criminals who ignored the current rules would suddenly obey the next set.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Until then, <a
