Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you to all the witnesses for your attendance and for your excellent presentations.

I represent and live in Alberta, where the geography and topography is quite dissimilar to the beautiful surroundings here at Halifax harbour. I'm guessing that provides different challenges.

Chief Beazley, you talked about the 105 guns you've seized in this calendar year, and the other contraband that shows up on your streets. Do you have any way of knowing, by anecdote or by estimation, what percentage of that contraband comes from water and boat, as opposed to land or air?
