Mr. Speaker, many Members of this Legislature, previous Premiers and Ministers, for many years they have lobbied very, very hard against this piece of legislation. We said many, many times to then-Minister of Justice Allen Rock, do not do it. It is a bad piece of legislation. It is going to create an enormous burden on the tax payers. It is going to be cumbersome, hard to implement and very costly and provide very little benefit to the people of Canada.

The legislation went anyway. We did offer on a couple of occasions to find ways to work with firearms testing and to date I am advised that our government is no longer assisting in any aspect of this legislation. It costs a lot of money to register guns, to issue licenses, to set up this registry.

The costs, we knew, are going to be much higher than the federal government led people to believe and we know the last figures that came out a year ago were proving that point.

This government is not spending any money or any resources to assist the federal government in getting people to comply with their legislation. Thank you.
