Mr. Speaker, through access to information I learned that the RCMP now employs 391 paper pushers on the government's fatally flawed gun registration scheme. In the meantime, the solicitor general leaves the RCMP desperately short of police on the street. In B.C., for example, there are 300 full time vacancies and 200 temporary vacancies.
Why is registering grampa's gopher gun a higher priority for the government than real law enforcement?
