Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I want to compliment our witnesses.
My question would be to Professor Stewart, though it could be answered by any others. I appreciated the three elements you've put forward and also how the criteria could be a danger, could trump the three elements and result in an acquittal or even a conviction.
My question has to do with a controversy that arose out of a question put by Brian Jean to the minister about the defender firing warning shots at somebody coming onto his property and stealing things. The concern was whether the minister's response about the warning shots would be encouraging vigilantism. I think the minister was maybe taken out of context.
My question is on the example itself, and not necessarily the minister's response to it. How would your elements relate to that kind of situation?
