Thank you, Mr. Chairman, for the question.
The additional requirement to take the training and not just challenge the test, as the minister indicated, is an opportunity to enhance public safety and to ensure that everyone has basic training. The minister referenced the training, for example, to be carrying a firearm and going over a fence, for example, or some sort of barrier.
The training really has two components. It has a classroom component, but it also has a very practical component in terms of safe handling, basic safety requirements, and use and care of a firearm. All of those components are handled in both the classroom and outside with a practical component. The training, of course, is customized in different regions, but it follows a basic curriculum that's been set by the Canadian firearms program, so it's uniform across the country.
