I would like to come back to the provisions and proposals in the bill presented today.

We have had discussions with the representatives of the Canadian Police Association. I must say that they have some reservations about Bill C-637. According to the discussions we have had with them, there have been fewer than a dozen convictions for transporting an air gun in all of Canada. So the number is very low. The Canadian Police Association feels that the amendments proposed in your bill would be unjustified given the number of charges laid.

What do you think about the Canadian Police Association's position on your bill?
