Colleagues, we are 12 minutes before the top of the hour. We can proceed in one of two ways.
One would be to say that this has been an excellent conversation and adjourn the meeting now. The other would be to divide the remaining time and give each party another two minutes. I'm in your hands. Do we have a consensus to adjourn the meeting now? Let me just see. There are a couple of thumbs up.
In that case, it's left up to me to thank the witnesses so very much. You have been very generous with your time, and it's clear to all of us that your lives are immersed in these issues. You can see it from every angle. You are living what, for many Canadians, would be a very tough life and a tough job. It's up to us as policy-makers and decision-makers to give you the best tools we can for you to combat gun and street violence in this country, especially among young people who find themselves in these gangs. We need to treat this issue with the seriousness it demands, which has been present during these three hours of questions and answers and presentations by all of you.
On behalf of the committee, representing the House of Commons, I thank you for the work you do for our country. I thank you for the generosity of your time this morning.
The meeting is adjourned.
