The federal cabinet is having “delicate conversations” with stakeholders about its proposed gun restriction bill, says Government House Leader Mark Holland, noting that the legislation centres on “a very emotionally charged issue.”

Holland was asked by reporters in Ottawa on Jan. 27 about the government’s timeline for Bill C-21 and when they hope to get it passed through the House of Commons.
