Return of Long Gun Registry

[bushman]

Hint-- longevity!!??

[Bigbear]

I hunt and own guns and I frankly didn't have a huge problem with the registry except I didn't feel the registry was secure from hackers...

So you want them to bring it back?

[standup]

I have no doubt they would govern from the left. They would not however implement full blown communism as calling them ULTRA-Leftist would suggest. As I stated, it would be political suicide - they would never get elected again. They have been elected to majorities in numerous provinces aver the years - do any of those provinces resemble Cuba or the former Soviet Union? That is what an ULTRA-Leftist regime resembles. The NDP are certainly left but they are not an ULTRA-leftist regime.

Calling them an Ultra-Leftist regime is at best an exaggeration and at worst fear-mongering.

What you think of the manifesto?

So he killed the Gun Registry BIG DEAL! I hunt and own guns and I frankly didn't have a huge problem with the registry except I didn't feel the registry was secure from hackers. Reelecting Harper because Trudeau or Mulcair might resurrect some form of the gun registry ....... don't think so. I'lll look at the other issues as well.

The return of a gun registry is really small potatoes when you think about other things the federal government is responsible for. For people who have spent time around "union" people and inner union politics,it becomes blatantly obvious,instantly,that they operate as a collective,that there's no room for individualism,that their local executive takes marching orders from the national office,that the national union calls the shots with the NDP and the Liberals,that,although it's illegal for unions to "compel" their members to contribute to leftist political programs financially,they still use other back door methods to ensure they bankroll left wing party politics. That's why they're so absolutely rabid to get rid of the Conservatives because of introduced legislation which demands union disclosure of ALL finances. There's absolutely no way they can withstand public scrutiny. My experience after many years in the auto industry dealt specifically with first,The UAW,then the CAW and eventually Unifor. If the average person hasn't any concept of the depth of corruption inside Canadian unions,they would have demanded their investigation,decades ago. Do we really want these guys as the puppetmasters of the Thomas Mulcair and/or Justin Trudeau types? Have we not seen enough in Ontario with teacher unions and the public service "associations"? Only the most cloistered people can call this "fearmongering". Canadians better wake up and soon.

Lets say mulcair wins a minority government which i think is a stretch. When one is elected leader the political sripe suffers . Now he must work with everyone and in an effort to govern mulcair will most certainly have to offend every union in an attempt to govern, especially in a minority setup. It will be the undoing of the ndp party if he even gets a sniff in that office. You are correct trimmer that the registry is small potatoes and i have chimed in on that belly button rubbing a few times. If the ndp get a look it will not be good for them going forward. I think they are hamstrung. Just two cents all. Watch the debate. Cheers!!

Couldn't agree more trimmer. Thieves and con artists will go to any length to further their careers and avoid exposure.

I wouldn't say "Never".....Trudeau would bring it back in a heartbeat !

Liberal Party official line is no registry return. This in response to lies being circulated in print by the Conbots. They have been telling the Yukon voters the Liberals plan to return the registry.
