Gun Registry Approaching 3B Tax Dollars AG Report --The gun registry, yet another total waste of taxpayer money. This is yet again another clear demonstration of our government catering to a few at the expense of the majority.
Note- originally foisted off to the Canadian taxpayer as costing 180 million dollars, the Registry keeps breaking new ceilings of cost- 1 billion, 2 billion, 3 billion-- who knows what it really is costing, with crooked books?
Criminals do not register their tools.
Grandma's goose gun is rarely used in holdups or drive-by shootings.
The money squandered on this sop to "we gotta do something about gun violence" could have bought MRI machines for Canada's lagging health care system... or strengthened its military. Or sealing the porous border.
Where did the billions go?

$100 for every man woman and child in Canada to register guns.

This is the equivalent of $30 billion in the United States. We rebuilt a country for that amount (Afghanistan).
