Madam Speaker, I am sure that Joe would agree that there is no place in our society for deadly military-style assault guns, the kind that were used for the shootings at École Polytechnique, the Quebec mass shooting or, most recently, the two police officers who were killed in South Simcoe. We are not targeting lawful rifles that are used by hunters. This is a complex piece of legislation. That is why it requires careful review and scrutiny. I am very thankful to Bloc and NDP members who gave their permission to have emergency meetings so that we can get this legislation right.
