Mr. Speaker, I will respond to the first point with respect to the proliferation of guns. It is my view that a great number of homicides are committed by people who know each other; in fact something in the order of 90%. They are either business partners, spouses or family. The registration of guns will diminish that level of homicide and that level of violence.
