The government claims the buyback program is completely voluntary “with the expectation they will comply,” according to Public Safety Minister Gary Anandasangaree.

Anandasangaree does not believe the Canadian government is equipped to disarm citizens, as revealed in a leaked audio clip. “I just don’t think municipal police services have the resources to do this,” the minister says.

The minister claims a gun lobbyist leaked the audio in which he was speaking in jest. On the audio, the minister admits that gun owners are clearly losing money with a C$400 flat rate compensation for each gun surrendered. The man asks if he would be considered a criminal for refusing to deactivate or surrender his guns. “If the police enforce it, yes,” the minister states.

This reminds me of our Income Tax and Social Security Program.

They are on paper completely volunetary as long as you comply.

Fail to comply and men with guns will come and get you and you will go to jail.

Before my boating accident where I lost all of my firearms I had a lot of guns.

Only two of three of those firearms would be valued at less than C$600.

Yes, if I participated in such a program and surrendered my weapons, I would be out thousands of dollars. I am much happier with my insurance settlement.
