With your permission, I'd like to call the meeting to order. This is our 5th meeting on Bill C-35, An Act to amend the Criminal Code (reverse onus in bail hearings for firearm-related offences)
Our witnesses are, as an individual, Monsieur Anthony N. Doob, professor, from the Centre for Criminology, University of Toronto; and from the Canadian Centre for Abuse Awareness, Monsieur John Muise, director of public safety.
I want to remind my colleagues that we need to be finished by 11 o'clock. There is another committee here at 11 o'clock.
We'll start with Mr. Doob's presentation, please.
