Given Larry Miller’s exalted status within the Conservative government, it is almost always worth noting his comments and concerns.

"The only good coyote is a dead coyote," Bruce-Grey Owen Sound MP Larry Miller told about 150 people during sheep day at the 45th annual Grey Bruce Farmers Week ... Miller used the debate to again state his opposition to the national gun registry. He said farmers, like himself, who once a carried a couple rifles in the truck are "afraid to bring out their guns and travel around like they used to."

"What the MNR needs to do when it comes to unregistered guns and what have you, they’ve got to start turning their heads the same way as they do with commercial fishermen that break the law," Miller told the meeting. "Let the farmers out there that have guns do a lot of this control."
