The ones I have spoken to are on the other end of the spectrum and feel we haven't gone far enough.
On the legislation itself, my understanding is that—and the minister touched on this—two or three years ago the split between domestic firearms and firearms that have come from outside Canada was about 70 to 30. About two to three years ago that started to change. Toronto Police say that 65% to 70% of the firearms that are used in crime are domestic. Most have started out as legal firearms but, through theft or illegal diversion, they are finding their way into gangs and crime.
I'm wondering if you can let us know if this legislation will assist police in trying to keep down those numbers of firearms that are finding their way into the hands of gangs and criminals.
