Registration shut down?

[MartyK2500]

May or may not have to do with it,
In my 12 years of owning an RPAL, i never waited more than 1 month for registration with the exception of my first AR.
Now I’m more than 2 months in, for a ruger wrangler 22lr and a G17gen5 at two different retailers.
I did receive transfer numbers months ago but still not being processed.

9 weeks in now, am in no rush so i haven’t called in yet, but am wondering if this political turmoil has anything to do with it, and i tend to say yes.

If there is a buy back there won’t be grandfathering

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.

This exactly! Time to wake up!

All in fun I await your response. Calling people tinfoil hat wearers because they don't just give up and throw all their faith into a ####ty judicial system and a government who has wronged it's people time and time again

^^ This sums it up perfectly. Thanks for sharing this. It shows clearly that when it comes to taking guns away from law-abiding citizens, our government will do whatever it wants to do. Anyone who thinks it will be a fair and just process is not seeing the true picture. It will be a very one-sided process. Look at what happened in Australia and New Zealand. They lost their guns. Forget court appeals and forget a fair judicial system, it won't happen for us gun-owners.

I am not familiar with what actually happened. How did you “lose” the firearms? Did someone knock on your door or did you voluntarily hand them over at a predetermined location?
I have often wondered what the government would do with mass noncompliance. Would they suspend passports? Send someone to your door?
I would like a province or two to tell the Feds that they will not comply. RCMP within their borders will lose all funding if they try to enforce new “firearms laws”. Offer any firearms business that wants to move to these provinces tax free status for a few years.
There has to be a tipping point where socialism is stopped.

What BS! Well, they knew you had those ones.. ZERO Compensation..w0w! Again. LIBERALS..Go after Criminals..plz. Not {us} PAL/RPAL Holders who have no criminal records/activity going on! Who are Vetted continually, as Honest People/Citizens. I don't believe you will have much of a compliance rate & just create a problem, when those pushed in a corner have to make a choice about their property, & 'what' to do with it.

Reminds me of Nazi Germany .. not saying you aren't on the $... & Think of all the Business, lost/gone. Mom & Pop shops, closing or down sizing. All for a bunch of BS stats, "issues" that have very little to No connection to us ... Damn liberal puff queens..

Writing letters and signing a petition won't change the fact that the government will do what it pleases. I can promise you those letters are being tossed in a recycling bin or shredder the moment after the secretary opens them and see what it's about.

They don't care what we want, they want to do what'll keep their base and the general public happy. Most people don't care about guns as they aren't involved in hunting or shooting sports. We are a very small number of people in the grand scheme of things on a national level. The real protest to their changes is to do what YOU want, regardless of what they tell you or what changes they put forth.

will they force us to register non-restricted firearms after a certain date - is it time to buy now?

So true.
