Registration shut down?

[Mr Wolverine]

Just something to think on, this is pure speculation on my part!

In the past when prohibited classes were created the "Grandfathered" individuals had to have a firearm in that class either registered to them or application to register made before the cut off date.

At that time we were handicapped as import approvals were delayed.

With the current system if the CFC registry was closed "application to register" would be impossible. Computers could be down, there could be staff shortages, files could be lost, the excuses are endless.

If you are thinking of purchasing a currently restricted firearm I would not leave it until the last minute, you might find that due to "Technical difficulties" you have run out of time, there would be no appeal.

Would this include handguns or just long guns?

I would think both if they were in the restricted class.......

 

[Armourall]

I didn't think they were "going after" the handguns yet. This is why I ask.

 

[THESEUS]

Just can't afford anymore guns or I'd be all over a bunch more

I hope your right, I think it will be the AR-15's and other semi-automatic rifles first. But make no mistake, handguns will be next and all our other firearms as well. They will not stop until they have achieved utter disarmament.

Why would a tyrannical government trust law abiding citizens with firearms? They want us to be helpless sheep that can be controlled or even eliminated if necessary.

Sheep with guns can contest the vote of wolves that states "what's for supper"!!..............

Well, one error is that there would be no appeal. I can't imagine courts would look at the government not doing their job then refusing to clear up the backlog for registrations. I can't guarantee you would win, but I certainly would prefer that side of the case in court. Governments can't really operate in bad faith with no consequences as long as there is a free court system...and there is in Canada.

Yup and you just keep believing that and you can keep believing in the tooth fairy and Santa too.

I believe it because it's fact.You believe in tinfoil hats and stuff like tooth fairies.

First go round I only got 12(6).

What would be stuff to look into for this potential go round?

 

[BlackSheepSquad]

Just my opinion, if they give cities or provinces the power to ban handguns or restricted firearms, is that not similar to banning them altogether?

Market would decrease in size, possibly drastically, so would value of goods, no “buyback” needed, and effectively regulate flows until a % of firearm can’t be owned nor sold and must be destroyed.

Well then, you better “think” again my friend!

The government can't be trusted with a registry. It needs to die. Tax payers would save a fortune.

 

[drift1122]

We ran out of time already!!!

What to expect this go around?!? They are banning hand guns and you think you get to keep what you have under your 12(6)...... Peoples this is “End Game”, you get nothing and like it. The cards are in their favour, just how are they going to play them.
Hopefully I’m Wrong

I wish I were a super uber hacker, but I can barely operate this contraption.

 

[GUB]

Watch what the government is doing in Virginia folks..
They have the 2nd..We have nothing

That assumes the money "saved" would be put to good use. Harry needs a canadian security detachment to live in Canada. Illegal refugees need hotel rooms with room service. Trudeau needs to fly around the world for benders, i mean, personal days. The government never saves money. They just decide which furnace to shovel cash into.

With all due respect, you are wrong. When C-68 came into force, myself and roughly 10,000 other people lost the 12(6) firearms they purchased between 1995 and 1998. At issue was the fact that we were required to be in possession of a registration certificate in order to be grandfathered. The government cancelled the existing certificates and then willfully delayed issuing new ones until it was too late to qualify for gandfathering. This was not a case of a few delays or errors. They did it to 10,000 people. Many of us appealed in court. We all lost. Many, many judges observed that it was an unholy mess and that the government had not acted in good faith. But in not one case did the courts fail to side with the government. And 10,000 of us lost our guns.

So please forgive me when I say you could not be more wrong in your current faith in our judiciary.
