Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you to the witnesses for being here. We especially appreciate the diverse knowledge that's here.
My question is for Mr. Gélinas.
Thank you for helping us focus. Sometimes we get the victims, and we also get the offenders. Sometimes the victims are not as vocal because they've been involved in some heinous crimes and they just don't feel comfortable talking about it. Thanks for bringing that up.
In law enforcement, I know that you're there, right front and centre, having to deal with the victims and dealing with the aftermath of serious and violent crime. It is interesting that you brought up the fact that in organized crime and gang activity, almost always, I believe—and you can correct me if I'm wrong—are illegal guns, yet here we are in the middle of not only this Bill C-5 that we are reviewing, but some other legislation that coming up for the seizure of what some people have called “weapons” or “guns that look like assault weapons”, and they don't specify or actually define that kind of gun.
I know that now in Vancouver, which is an area I'm more familiar with, ghost guns are quite popular. They're 3-D printed and used just one or two times. In your experience in dealing with organized crime and gang activity, do you deal with many people who have PALs or RPALs, who actually have legal guns, or are you almost exclusively dealing with illegal guns?
