Public Safety committee I can tell you that the important work.... It's primarily the responsibility of CBSA to conduct removals. Once a person has been determined not to be eligible and has exhausted the available appeals processes and due processes in our law, they are subject to removal. I believe th

Public Safety committee Mr. Motz, let me just tell you my own experience with it.
February 25th, 2019Committee meeting
Bill Blair
Public Safety committee I'll try to be brief. During my time in the Toronto Police Service, both as the chief of detectives and then for 10 years as the chief of police, we made an effort to trace the origin of all guns that were used in crime in our city. During that period of time, some 13 years, th

Public Safety committee I believe the issue you're referring to is beneficial ownership.
February 25th, 2019Committee meeting
Bill Blair
Public Safety committee It can be referred to in a number of different ways, so I wanted to make sure I was answering the question you were actually posing.
February 25th, 2019Committee meeting
Bill Blair
Public Safety committee Yes, we know that in a number of different jurisdictions, other jurisdictions, the clarity of beneficial ownership can be very helpful to our financial institutions to maintain their integrity and for law enforcement conducting investigations. We recognize there is work that can

Public Safety committee I'm aware of the acronym, but for everyone else, it's the integrated market enforcement teams, which were established by the RCMP. The complexity of financial crime does require a set of skills and sometimes things that are not necessarily taught at Depot or in other police acade

Public Safety committee I don't have that number.
February 25th, 2019Committee meeting
Bill Blair
Public Safety committee I'm sure the number exists. I just don't have it.

Bill Blair
Public Safety committee Absolutely. Let me be clear. In my experience—
February 25th, 2019Committee meeting
Bill Blair
Public Safety committee Oh, I thought you had asked me a question.
February 25th, 2019Committee meeting
Bill Blair
Public Safety committee Mr. Motz, I actually have a great deal of evidence. In my experience, the overwhelming majority of lawful firearm owners in this country are law-abiding and responsible in their ownership. That has been my experience and the data will pull that out.
February 25th, 2019Committee meeting
Bill Blair
Public Safety committee However, also from my own personal experience—and I have a great deal of data that I'm aware of—unfortunately some of the firearms that belonged to or were a part of lawful firearm owners' collections do, in a number of ways, end up in the hands of people who would commit violent

Public Safety committee It is very much a global phenomenon, Ms. Sahota. Literally tens of millions of people are fleeing war and persecution. There are also a number of economic migrants who are very much on the move. Countries all around the world, certainly developed countries and countries that are

Public Safety committee We have the benefit of our isolation. In order to come to Canada, one has to cross one of three oceans or enter from the United States, so we are not as vulnerable to the migration of people as other countries that share more common borders. At the same time, we are a country wi
