Thank you, Minister, but I know the parameters of the program. That wasn't the question.
Your program has been unanimously rejected. Whether it's the provinces, hunters' associations or indigenous peoples, everyone who complies with the regulations is against the confiscation program. Even police forces are opposed to it. Need I remind you that Clayton Campbell was opposed to the program? Isn't what you are doing with the program simple obstinacy?
Hunters are writing to tell us that they have invested a lot of money in their purchases and that the rebate will not even cover the majority of their expenses. What do you say to these people today? Are you going to top up the $750-million fund? There is obviously not enough money in it.
