Thank you very much. My questions are for Ms. Bear.
Ms. Bear, thank you very much for being with us. The committee is assembled on and greets you from the unceded traditional territory of the Algonquin people.
I wanted to give you the opportunity—you've touched upon it in conversation with colleagues—to restate the importance of firearms, both culturally and economically, to our first nations. Be as comprehensive as you'd like to be, perhaps with the assistance of Mr. Nielsen, and then I have a second question for you that I'm hoping to get in within the five minutes I have.
