Mr. Speaker, what we are going to do and what we have done is be responsible and balanced and take into account the views at all ends of the spectrum.
The fact is the hon. member seizes upon the headlines of this morning from the Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police. I have two comments. The first is that recently the paper has been full of reports of the testimony of other witnesses before the committee who said precisely the opposite. Obviously views differ. What we have done in Bill C-37 is produced a balanced bill that adjusts and amends the act in the public interest.
The second observation I would make is that I am interested to observe the hon. member's interest in the views of the Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police. I remind him it is the same organization that very much supports our intentions with respect to gun control.
