Cops won’t enforce gun registry laws
No one will be prosecuted until we get this “billion dollar
boondoggle sorted out”
Ontario’s police chiefs want the federal gun registry put on hold.
The “billion dollar boondoggle” is in such disarray that police in
the province will not be charging people who have yet to register
their guns, Owen Sound police chief Tom Kaye said. “It wouldn’t be
right to prosecute someone under the circumstances,” said Kaye, who
is also president of the Ontario Association of Chiefs of Police. The
association will request the federal government to “step back from
the gun registry,” in a letter early next week, he told the Owen
Sound Police Services Board Thursday. The deadline for registering
guns under Bill C-68 was Dec. 31. Almost six million guns were
registered, leaving an estimated one-quarter of firearms in Canada
still unregistered at the time. Meant to cost about $2 million, the
registry is said now to be approaching $1 billion, with hundreds of
people still unable to register guns or contact officials, Kaye said.
