Nov;1 2012, The Conservative Government of Canada announced that it completed, October 31 2012,a core election promise,that all records related to registration of long guns;excepting those pertaining to the Province of Quebec, have been destroyed. In the case of Quebec;the Provincial Government has in place a temporary injunction preventing destruction of Provincial records.The issue of the Quebec records will likely ultimately be decided by the Federal Supreme Court. The goverment stated that they will continue to target criminals using firearms and not law abiding Canadians. This is welcome news to all legitimate Canadian gun owners.

Good job Canadians! I toast you with a shot of American bourbon.
Practice safe eating. Always use a condiment.

I wonder what happens to the records for Americans who have their pal and registered their guns so they could bring them into Canada without paying a fee every time they come? If they hang onto their little registration cards, can they get them in without paying a fee if they were previously registered?

If we get 4 more years of the socialist and his band of merry men and women I may just head to Canada.......probably have to give my collection of handguns to Skeettx since Canada still has restrictions on those.

I believe it's the first time ever that a federal gun registration has been reversed.

Yes, good news. Obviously the people of Quebec cannot be trusted according to their government.

Congratulations to Canadian gun owners! But just a thought... how hard would it be for some Liberal still involved in the Canadian Government to have backed-up or saved a copy of those records for future use?
A true sign of mental illness is any gun owner who would vote for an Anti-Gunner like Joe Biden.

Well Keith, of course that's what we are worried about.
A great many of us sold significant portions of our gun collections in the dying days of the registry, filing the paperwork that confirmed those sales. Of course, when we bought replacements, those guns were no longer required to be registered so whatever documentation the government has is significantly out of date. In my case, I sold all my guns. Every last one. Then in the last month of the registry, the addiction came back and I bought one shotgun.
However, we are still required to be licensed and that will always give the government a pretty good idea of who has guns.
And as pleased as we are about reversing the trend towards gun control, I don't think Canada is a first in this regard. I believe New Zealand has a leg up on us in this regard.
The world cries out for such: he is needed & needed badly- the man who can carry a message to Garcia
