Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you to all the witnesses for being here with us today and sharing their wisdom, knowledge and experience with this committee as we seek to develop policy to keep Canadians safer.
Mr. Latimer, I'm going to turn to you first. Thank you for being here, and for the statistics you have given us.
At this committee, we've heard testimony from witnesses who've said that up to 70% of guns used in crime were domestically sourced. We've heard other witnesses say that about 85% of guns used in crime were smuggled in from the United States. Could you help us understand that a bit better? Why is there such a wide variety of evidence?
