Every time someone from here or outside says there isn’t a registration system, I have to take the time to check and correct this.
In Canada, in all the provinces and territories, we have a registration system. We want a stronger system than the one the Liberals had. Every time someone says that we don’t have a registration system, I have to correct them.
Ever since we have had a good system, the one that is in place now, we have saved close to $13 million. Simply by transferring firearms registration to the RCMP, we managed to save $10 million, and then the RCMP was able to save another $3 million.
Mr. Peter Martin, Deputy Commissioner of the RCMP, who is in charge of the program, can give you more details if he wishes.
