Mr. Speaker, the second petition is from the residents of Fort McMurray in my riding.
They ask that Parliament support laws which severely punish all violent criminals who use weapons in the commission of a crime; support new Criminal Code firearms control provisions which recognize and protect the right of law-abiding citizens to own and use recreational firearms; and support legislation which will repeal
or modify existing gun control laws that have not improved public safety, have proven not to be cost effective or have proven to be overly complex as to be ineffective or unenforceable.
