I certainly would agree that both of them are weapons. I think that all of the evidence indicates that firearms are far more dangerous and that people who are shot are much more likely to be seriously injured. It's almost impossible to shoot someone and not have them be seriously injured, where in the vast majority of cases where people are subject to a CEW deployment, they suffer no injury or very little injury.
What I said in my opening comments and as reflected in our policy is that the CEW is classified as a prohibited firearm. “Prohibited firearm” is a term in the Criminal Code of Canada, and the definition in the Criminal Code of Canada of a prohibited firearm is such that a taser fits that definition. That is our interpretation of the provisions in the Criminal Code, based on the advice from the Department of Justice.
