Mr. Speaker, he also said that we should maintain the registry.
The Conservatives are taking an ideological stance and are ignoring the truth. This was clear in the comments made by the member for Montmagny—L'Islet—Kamouraska—Rivière-du-Loup, who denies that the École Polytechnique tragedy played a role in the creation of the registry. Not only is that untrue and unacceptable, but it also negates all the work done by the Coalition for Gun Control.
Why refuse to listen to the École Polytechnique survivors, who are also calling for the firearms registry to be maintained?
