Many gun rights advocates feel that Ecole Polytechnique shooting survivor Nathalie Provost is unqualified to sit as vice-president of the firearms advisory committee. As a result, I am sure they will be happy to accept our position.
CCFR spokesperson Tracey Wilson is dangerously unqualified to offer an opinion on crime and gun violence in Canada. We say dangerously, because she is paid to speak on behalf of the gun lobby.
Earlier this summer, she offered an opinion on a possible handgun ban in a CBC interview:
"I want to have a credible conversation about crime in this country". "We're getting caught up in a very unsophisticated conversation, where we are thinking that prohibition of something is suddenly going to work."
As someone licensed to own and use firearms in Canada, Wilson definitely knows her way around a gun range and legislation affecting gun owners. This, however, does not qualify her to offer an expert opinion on crime.
According to her Linked-In profile, she has a diploma in Facilities Management from Algonquin College. She has not studied criminology, sociology or any other field related to crime in Canada.
As a result, we are sure she will be happy to sit out the debates as experts in the field determine the best course of action to deal with gun violence and crime in Canada.
