    Freedom in Canada Long gun registry ended

    The bill to end the long gun registry passed the Senate today, 50 to 27 in favor, now just Royal Assent (signed by the GG). After 17 years of fighting, Canadian Gun owners have won a victory!! Now on to the next battle, the war never ends!!

    Excellent~! I wonder if they will destroy the records on my guns now?
    The solid soft lead bullet is undoubtably the best and most satisfactory expanding bullet that has ever been designed. It invariably mushrooms perfectly, and never breaks up. With the metal base that is essential for velocities of 2000 f.s. and upwards to protect the naked base, these metal-based soft lead bullets are splendid.

    Forget everything you know about loading jacketed bullets. This is a whole new ball game!

    There is hope for us all. That's one for common sense. Only wish the Australian government will wake up too themselves and follow suit. Best wish's to our Canadian friends.

    Praise God ! That is some of the best news I have heard from Canada in my lifetime. This news ranks right up there with your embassy giving aid to the three Americans in Iran back in 1980. I pray one day you have the joy of complete Freedom.

    Yes!!! Good news indeed! BUT---we are still away less free than we were before that Nazi legislation was first put into place. The real problem is that part of that legislation gave power to non-elected bureaucrats to declare a particular firearm (or group of firearms) prohibited and if your Possession Acquisition License (PAL) does not cover prohibited firearms your firearm can be confiscated without compensation (legal theft!). We have a loooong way to go. If you are Canadian, join the NFA (National Firearms Association)! The fight continues!

    That's awesome news. I hope the UK, New Zealand and Australia pro-freedom associations can muster the same results and momentum.

    To our Canadian friends: Keep the momentum up!

    Congratulations, Enjoy your victory. If the political machine in Canada is like the one in the states. This is only going to fire 'em up. Do the Canadian citizens have a "Bill of Rights" captured in their charter/ constitution? I think the U.S would be in the same condition as NZ, AU, UK and to a lesser extent now Canada. It never ceases to amaze me on how far sighted our founding father were when the Constitution and the Bill of Rights were drafted.

    Thumbs up It's DEAD...........FOREVER!

    It's true...............as of Midnight tonight, Ottawa time.

    I wait till 1:00 a.m., then I'll burn all of my registration certificates. I'll post some pics just to prove I'm really happy.

    FYI. Various groups have been pushing hard to "LAX" some of the handgun legislation, we have supporters in Ottawa. Handgun hunting should be allowed here, same with open carry.

    We need to stick togeather on these issues, keep fighting and lots of pressure.................laws can be changed for the BETTER!.

    From a VERY HAPPY CANADIAN GUN OWNER!
