Mr. Speaker, I thank the hon. member for his support and hard work on this very important file.
Today, the Minister of Public Safety announced that this Conservative government is planning to extend the current amnesty so that we can continue to bring even more Canadians into compliance with the existing system. We will continue to separate honest, hard-working responsible gun owners from criminals who operate outside the law and do not register their illegal handguns.
We are targeting criminals, not law-abiding citizens. We are focused on keeping our streets and communities safe, not harassing hunters in the bush.
