Mr. Speaker, it is a pleasure to rise in the House today to present petitions on two separate subjects.
The first petition is signed by 229 petitioners, many of whom are from my riding of Wild Rose.
The petitioners call upon the House of Commons to support Bill C-391, An Act to amend the Criminal Code and the Firearms Act (repeal of long-gun registry). In so doing, they call on all parties to do the right thing in support of law-abiding farmers, ranchers and hunters, and finally abolish the wasteful and ineffective long gun registry.
