Mr. Speaker, it is not easy to get a long gun. It is also important to note what others have said about this recently.
There was a recent statement by the Liberal member for Ottawa South that “it is important for all of us just to remember that no long gun registry system, no weapon registry system, can stop unfortunate acts like the one that happened in Montreal last week, so let's just get that on the record”.
We want to get on the record a safer, more secure system and that is what we intend to do.
