I think I will start making a list of things like this to ask during the next election open house in our area to make a few candidates squirm.
I don't see too many advantages for LEO's to use the old registry, since the info would be virtually useless to prove who owns what and how many and what the owner potentially did with the firearm?
I read somewhere,maybe even here,that the average Canadian firearm owner has three guns.........a shotgun,a rimfire and a medium caliber deer/moose rifle that they bought/inherited once and intend to keep forever. Most have owned them since before the LGR was enacted,dutifully registered them and,since then,have never changed even after the LGR was quashed. If that's accurate,it necessarily follows that data for most owners hasn't changed a lot,therefore,remaining LGR data would still be fairly accurate.
You could have sold or given them all away, there is no way for them to prove anything from the long gun registry.
The long gun registry is garbage no matter where the copy sits, if you ask me or many other shooters all of those guns from back in the day have been moved to a new home, if they want to start up a new registry then have to start from scratch.
If the RCMP were to ever call you about a specific firearm, I would ask where and how they got that information.
