And as some one has pointed out, the data is a non issue, but it is not gone. All they have to do is find a Judge that will order it active again. As we all know, our address is part of the PAL process, that is all they need. We may fight tooth and nail, but if you don't have guns, you don't need a PAL. They bring back some kind of registration, and you get caught out there, DONE.
I can also foresee more fee's. Every firearm will come with a cost, annually. Just think of the cash cow. Oh look Mr. Bloggins, you have 6 firearms, OH and you wanna keep them, well that will cost ya 100$ per gun per year. Oh you don't wanna pay, OK, we can just send the RCMP over and treat you as a high risk threat. Cause you got illegal firearms.
Remember, common sense has no place in Gun Laws, it is all based on fear-mongering the masses, and the masses all vote...
