The following is from the <a data-HoCid=\"214296\" href=\"/politicians/justin-trudeau/\" title=\"Justin Trudeau\">Prime Minister</a> himself, who said, \u201cThe long-gun registry, as it was, was a failure and I'm not going to resuscitate that\u201d. The current Prime Minister also said, \u201cThere are better ways of keeping us safe than that registry which has been removed.\u201d</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7256245\" data-originallang=\"en\">Here is a person who is in our House today and is bringing forward other rules to probably, I believe, divide Canadians, which is what he does and how he wins. If he really wants to actually crack down on illegal firearms crime and make our streets safer in this country, he needs to look at what the Standing Committee on Public Safety and National Security has looked at, what some police officers are saying and what some of the anti-gang task force are saying to do, and to follow what they are saying to do. He should not spend those scarce and much-needed resources on the law-abiding firearms community. We are not the problem.</p>",

Le <a data-HoCid=\"214296\" href=\"/politicians/justin-trudeau/\" title=\"Justin Trudeau\">premier ministre</a> lui-m\u00eame a affirm\u00e9 que ce registre des armes d\u2019\u00e9paule s\u2019est av\u00e9r\u00e9 un \u00e9chec et qu\u2019il n\u2019allait pas le ressusciter. Il a ajout\u00e9 qu\u2019il y a de meilleurs moyens d\u2019assurer notre s\u00e9curit\u00e9 que ce registre, qui a \u00e9t\u00e9 \u00e9limin\u00e9.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7256245\" data-originallang=\"en\">Et voil\u00e0 qu\u2019\u00e0 la Chambre aujourd\u2019hui, un d\u00e9put\u00e9 propose d\u2019autres r\u00e8gles pour, selon moi, diviser les Canadiens. C\u2019est la strat\u00e9gie qu\u2019il utilise pour gagner. S\u2019il veut vraiment s\u00e9vir contre les crimes commis avec des armes \u00e0 feu ill\u00e9gales et rendre nos rues plus s\u00fbres au Canada, il doit examiner ce que le Comit\u00e9 permanent de la s\u00e9curit\u00e9 publique et nationale a examin\u00e9, ce que certains policiers disent et ce que certains membres de l\u2019escouade antigang sugg\u00e8rent que nous fassions. Il ne devrait pas gaspiller des ressources si rares et n\u00e9cessaires en s'attaquant aux propri\u00e9taires d\u2019armes \u00e0 feu respectueux des lois. Nous ne contribuons en rien au probl\u00e8me.</p>"
