Mr. Speaker, Toronto police chief Mark Saunders revealed in December that 82% of handguns involved in crimes were smuggled from the U.S. The minister of public safety had previously stated half of crime guns come from domestic sources. The statistics from when the minister was the chief in Toronto and carried a gun show the same picture as today: A very small percent of firearms are from legal sources, while many crime guns are prohibited and from the United States.
Could the minister table the source of his information that has now been proven incorrect?
