Gun Registry Petition News Conference

Author: John Williamson 2006/06/19

On Monday, June 19, 2006, the Canadian Taxpayers Federation presented 28,000 gun registry petitions to Minister of Public Safety Stockwell Day. The CTF's petition calls on Ottawa to shut down the long-gun registry and reallocate future budgeted gun registry spending to front-line police and effective controls against illegal firearms at our borders, airports and ports.

The CTF earlier delivered 14,000 gun registry petitions to Auditor-General Sheila Fraser's office in 2002.
