Thank you, Mr. Chair, and thank you to all the witnesses.
I'm going to start off with the National Police Federation.
We heard from CACP earlier in the meeting that implementing all of these new regulations about guns is mostly going to be an administrative thing, not a policing thing. However, we know that the RCMP and many police forces across the country are dealing with massive issues with staffing challenges.
Can you comment on how the added regulatory burden of this new government legislation could impact the police's ability to carry out their mandate to keep the public safe?
