So, what’s your point ? Thousands drove impaired last year as well and got away with it. It just takes one slip and you are in a world of hurt !!

If it had not been for the thousands refusing to register the LGR would most likely still be around. You can thank all those who refused.

Never once had a CO ask for registration permits

BS, if it wasn't for Harpers Conservatives it may still be around.

It was also due to non compliance less than 50% of guns were registered. If everybody had followed suit it would have been a bigger political battle.
NB, NS and Ontario CO's were told not to even bother with asking for registration permits.
If you really think it was all Harper I have some land you can buy really cheap.

There were lots of guys checked at game stations by COs who just happened to be accompanied by OPP. They did check registrations and firearms licences......guns were seized, firearms licences were revoked....not to mention the court dispositions. As far as noncompliance being the reason the lgr was killed...well, that’s just plain BS. I did not agree one bit with the lgr, but as Terry said, You would be a complete idiot to put yourself in a position of getting any firearms related charges....but many were, and many paid the price.

The reason COs didn’t ask for certs, was they didn’t have that authority under the Act.....

Exactly Mike....what real difference did it make to have your guns registered? Except for the fact that it was the law, and you risked losing your guns, firearms licence, etc.. The registry did make it easier for police to return guns found piled up in some crack house someplace !!
