Mr. Speaker, while we support the licensing and registration of prohibited weapons, we do not support the wasteful long gun registry. It is time to end the criminalization of lawful hunters and outdoor enthusiasts once and for all.
Police Chief Hanson from Calgary has called the long gun registry a placebo and says that it creates a false sense of security.
We hope that those MPs who have voted to retain the long gun registry will change their minds rather than following the latest order of the Liberal leader.
