Yes, I completely agree with that.
In my opinion, the debate is in the wrong place. In fact, gun control in Canada is very effective with respect to legal weapons. However, where the problem lies is in situations where there is an influx of illegal weapons, particularly from the United States. The border between Canada and the United States is the longest in the world. However, our neighbours to the south have a very liberal approach to the possession of weapons.
So I think that if we assume that illegal weapons are the problem, the money spent on other projects should be used to deal with that problem. Indeed, experience has shown that weapons seized as a result of crime, both now and over the years—particularly those criminals have in their possession or those found at crime scenes—are illegal weapons.
