Madam Speaker, the second petition is signed by 86 petitioners from Okanagan-Similkameen-Merritt. I point out that to date
1,271 people in my riding have signed this petition which asks the House of Commons assembled to oppose further legislation for firearms acquisition and possession and to provide for strict guidelines and mandatory sentencing for use or possession of a firearm in the commission of a violent crime.
I concur with both of these petitions.
