Madam Speaker, I would like to ask the member about the cost of the implementation of this legislation. We are aware that in Ontario the costs run around $4 million for its system. The national registry costs around $400,000. Surely the government has some statistics of what the implementation and roll-out costs are going to be, or is it a case where it is simply going to download the costs on the provinces, because that is what seems to be happening with a number of other crime bills?
In the House of Commons on December 7th, 2010. See this statement in context.
