Mr. Speaker, I must point out the contradiction in the conclusion made by my colleague in his speech.
Under the copyright bill, people who break the electronic lock protecting works could be sent to prison or a penitentiary for up to five years. In the meantime, the government wants to be kind and avoid treating gun owners like criminals. That is honourable. We have made proposals to smooth out the process and to avoid having gun owners who have not registered their firearms be systematically threatened with prison terms.
How can my colleague live with that contradiction?
