Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Minister of Justice.
In the wake of the tragic murder of Constable Todd Baylis, the Solicitor General stated that the killing pointed out the need for tighter gun control. Yet information released in the wake of the shooting indicates that the man who apparently shot Constable Baylis was already in illegal possession of the gun.
Could the minister advise the House how tighter gun control would have prevented the shooting?
