Canada already tried to register 15 million long guns and had to stop.....it cost hundreds of millions of dollars...and the price kept increasing and it was wasting the time of actual law enforcement officers. What did it achieve...nothing...
So..typical liberals...if something fails catastrophically......they want to do it even more.....
Retired police officers warn Quebec against starting costly gun registry - NEWS 1130
When the Liberals introduced the registry in 1995, they said it would cost roughly $110 million to create. Instead, the figure ballooned to hundreds of millions of dollars before the Conservatives abolished it in 2012.
----------
Critics, however, say that while everyone wants safe streets and less violence, there is little evidence a registry makes cities safer. They also argue the millions dedicated to maintaining a gun database can be used more efficiently on crime prevention or increased access to mental-health services.
The Ontario Superior Court ruled in 2014 against a constitutional challenge to the Conservative law abolishing the registry, saying “there is no reliable evidence” the decision “actually has, or will, increase the incidence of violence or death by firearms.”
