of the hands of potentially dangerous users and discourage the use of guns in violent crimes If the bill becomes law gun purchasers will be required to obtain permit to buy firearms providing he has no history of mental disorder or violent behavior and is not under court order prohibiting him from buyinga gun The courts would be required to issue such an order if per son is convicted of using firearm in criminal manner and impose minimum 10year prison sentence for using gun while committing acrimc Under the new measures it would become crime to point gun at someone whether it is loaded or not Children under 16 years old would be prohibited from buying guns but could get free permit to receivea gun as gift and use it for legitimate pur poses Present gunowners will not money left over to

provision of the gun control bill which died on the order paper at the end of the last parliamen tary session The proposal gives the police the right to seize firearms when it is apparent to the officer at the scene of domestic dispute that the firearms may be used to seitlethc matter However the firearm must be either returned to the owner within days or turned over to the courts for disposal This section of the bill was in cluded after it received the unanimous support of the Association of Police hiefs The new bill would also per mil person to buy firearm it he can produce provincial hunting permit issued under provisions similar to those needed to obtain federal firearms permit Miline said he feels the bill if passed will go long way toward ending the use of firear ms
