Mahsi, Mr. Speaker. I'm pleased to hear that the Minister of Justice will be taking a proactive role in trying to get the committee to hear the views of northerners first hand. However, it is true that comments made to a federal committee in Yellowknife may not attract the attention of southern Canadians in Toronto or Montreal or Vancouver or any other cities down south. Has the Minister given consideration to making a formal representation, either to the Minister or to the federal Justice and Legal Affairs Committee in Ottawa itself, so that southern Canadians can fully understand the implications that these new firearms regulations have for our culture and our traditional lifestyles? Mahsi.
