" Public Safety Minister Anne McLellan was responsible for the registry at the time — the government decided not to ask Parliament for more money, but instead asked accountants and lawyers to find a way to shift $21.8-million in costs to the next fiscal year."

I'd say lock McLellan up; but, that would only lead to the corruption of the morals of other inmates. Also, few have committed a serious enough crime to be subjected to McLellan's whinny voice for hours on end.

Now is this a surprise??? :-)

Gun controllers lie? I just refuse to believe that. They only have the interests of the children at heart.

costs "roughly $100-million a year..."



And doesn't seem to work.

Well surprise, surprise. A liberal would tell a lie? Darn, don't tell me it is so. /scalding sarcasm on.

[Puppage]

use the timing to push through its plan to scrap the registry of rifles and shotguns

I am sure they'll do away with all the names previously collected, too.

"the Centre still takes too long to process applications, and doesn't know how many of its records have outdated addresses or incorrect names." "It also does not adequately verify transfers to new owners or the description of the registered firearms — information crucial to making the registry useful for tracking guns.

Only criminals, tyrants and liberals fear the armed citizen.

Once again we see just how mentally deranged are those of liberal political views. How many crimes have been solved by use of the registry? Gun registries are good only for one thing: eventual confiscation. This one may be so screwed up that it won't even be good for that!

Liberals lie??? I can't believe that. I don't think liberals know HOW to lie. < / sarcasm, before face explodes >

Okay, let's think a minute. How expensive is it to have a gun registry? How did this cost A BILLION DOLLARS! Even in Canadian money??? I can set up an Excel file that we can put every gun owner's name into for a mere fraction of that.

I am anti-registry, of course, but isn't it obvious that they must have used this politically correct program to STEAL a lot of public money? This isn't just about gun rights -- that money just disappeared, and who knows what they did with it?

Another great liberal program. They have so many wonderful success stories.

The Government Of Canada deliberately misled Parliament and hid the true costs of the ill-fated gun registry from it. $1 billion in sight and climbing. The Liberals assured the country when the gun registry was introduced a decade ago the cost would be a few million dollars. Look at what a difference a decade made in the final figure.

Looks like another LIEberal slush fund has been uncovered here. When do we get to see the Little Dictator Jean Chretien and his acolyte Mr. Dithers frog marched from the courthouse after being convicted for fraud, conspiracy, etc., into the waiting arms of Corrections Canada?

Oh wait, Chretien and Martin are of the privileged class and are not held to the same standards as the little people, now are they?

Back to your golf games, gentlemen!
