GARRY’S PROMISE: "Our firearms policy (See below) will effectively return our gun laws to the way they were before 1995 (See 1994 Library of Parliament Report below)– except for the mandatory minimum sentences that we propose to increase. Then I personally promise that I will start the task of fixing all the flaws in federal firearm laws by requiring that they be subjected to a public safety test administered by the Auditor General of Canada. My proposal includes a sunset clause on all gun control laws that have been proven by the Auditor General not to be cost effective at reducing the criminal use of firearms and improving public safety."

FIREARMS POLICY: A Conservative Government will repeal Canada's costly gun registry legislation and work with the provinces and territories on cost-effective gun control programs designed to keep guns out of the hands of criminals while respecting the rights of law-abiding Canadians to own and use firearms responsibly. Measures will include: mandatory minimum sentences for the criminal use of firearms; strict monitoring of high-risk individuals; crackdown on the smuggling; safe storage provisions; firearms safety training; a certification screening system for all those wishing to acquire firearms legally; and putting more law enforcement officers on our streets.

SENTENCING POLICY: A Conservative Government will:
i) institute mandatory minimum sentences for violent and repeat offenders;
ii) require that sentences for multiple convictions be served consecutively;
iii) eliminate statutory (automatic) release;
iv) Reform the National Parole Board including increased input from the community and victims in National Parole Board decisions; and
v) require applicants for parole to demonstrate to the National Parole Board that they have been rehabilitated.

PROPERTY RIGHTS POLICY
i) A Conservative Government will seek the agreement of the provinces to amend the Constitution to include this right, as well as guarantee that no person shall be deprived of their just right without the due process of law and full, just, and timely compensation.
ii) A Conservative Government will enact legislation to ensure that full, just and timely compensation will be paid to all persons who are deprived of personal or private property as a result of any federal government initiative, policy, process, regulation or legislation.
