They say that the internet is forever. Apparently, so is a gun registry.
You see, in Canada, they had a long gun registry. It was a complete disaster and eventually, lawmakers up that way voted to kill it. It was a major win for gun rights in Canada.
A year after Liberal Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced his sweeping ban on firearms, shocking new revelations have emerged concerning the repudiated long gun registry and the federal police agency responsible for implementing and enforcing Canada’s gun laws.
According to reports by the Canadian Shooting Sports Association (CSSA) and news media, there is good reason to believe that the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) has retained the long gun registry records.
