Canada Set to Abolish Long-Gun Registry Law and Will Repeal Registration of Hunting Rifles & Shotguns

I hope that this bill to abolish the registration of shotguns and hunting rifles in Canada passes. The author believes that the odds are good for its passage. I will keep my ears to the cyber street and report back when the final vote occurs.

The bill would delete from federal law the obligation to register so-called nonrestricted firearms, though licensing requirements for long-gun owners to buy or possess firearms and to buy ammunition would remain in place.

The legislation would also require all registration information collected to date to be destroyed.
