CSSA – For Immediate Release

A new Private Member’s Bill (C-391) is being introduced to get rid of the long-gun Registry and fix other issues with the Firearms Act.

“…

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

May 15, 2009

The Canadian Shooting Sports Association applauds new Bill to end the failed Long Gun Registry

OTTAWA – The CSSA is pleased to support Portage-Lisgar M.P., Candice Hoeppner’s Private Members Bill C-391, to end the failed and wasteful Long Gun Registry

“We are pleased to see the Conservative government attempting to achieve consensus in the House of Commons regarding firearms legislation. This Bill addresses the concerns of the Opposition while removing the costly albatross of the long gun registry,” stated Tony Bernardo, Executive Director of the Canadian Institute for Legislative Action.

The Hoeppner Bill, C-391, contains provisions that will end the Long Gun Registry, reducing the exorbitant costs associated with the Firearms Act. “Ending the Long Gun Registry can only result in massively decreased costs with no loss of public safety,” Bernardo added.

Despite having only half the firearms in Canada entered into the registry, the CBC has estimated its costs to Canadian taxpayers at over $2 Billion and it is estimated another $1 Billion + will be needed to complete the program, not including annual operating costs.

Support for the failed program has almost totally diminished, except for certain special interest groups like the Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police, a group that accepts large donations from the company that runs the Registry computer systems (CGI.)

CSSA Executive Director Larry Whitmore states, “This is a Bill that all Canadians can feel comfortable with. C-391 will help restore credibility to Canada’s firearms control measures and we strongly encourage all Canadians to support it.” He added, “The Opposition has clearly stated their desire for such a Bill. It’s time for them to stop the rhetoric and act in the interests of Canada’s taxpayers. They need to support Bill C-391”

Understanding how anti-gunners work with Canada’s liberal-biased media…

The original poster of this on a forum is unknown to me. However I wish to share it with others as a means of educating thme about what they are seeing an hearing on TV and some print media concerning the Registry in Canada and gun control as well.

“…Recently, I came across a reference to a 1928 book, Propaganda, by Bernays. I’ve adapted his formula to reveal how Wendy Cukier and other gun ban professonals operate:

· conduct no research
· avoid the real issues when possible
· never engage in any debate where actual research data will be used
· attack the opponent, not the issue

Don’t try to instruct, or lead through a process of step-by-step education
· persuade; do not inform
· use emotional phrases to distract people from the real issues
· when confronted, change the subject
· cover up the real studies; never refer to them

Pretend there is some favorable research by using phrases like “Numerous studies have shown…” or “Research has proven…” or “Scientific investigators have found….” but then never cite anything

Always harp on the “superior education and training” of the gun-control people, pretending that most educated professionals favour gun control, even though most of the propaganda has been written by non-science people, generally with public relations or mass-psychology backgrounds (like Wendy Cukier).

Keep repeating unfounded falsehoods about the safety and effectiveness of gun registration and banning.

Remind people how many decades gun control has been going on

Favor mandatory anti-gun legislation, removing all opportunity for free discussion when possible.

Try to keep all opposing evidence from being seen or considered by any policy-making agency.

Omit pertinent data from actual studies.

Above all, never stop repeating the same falsehoods, over and over.

…”

If someone knows who the OP was? I would appreciate the tip so I can give credit where it is due.

Gun Control vs. People Control

This picture demonstrates proper control of a firearm.

The Registry in Canada has nothing to do with either safe handling or responsible ownership.

Licensing as proof of training has everything to do with safety.

If you are into equality for all Canadians and our common safety, security and sovereignty?

Please call or write your MP today and tell them to support Bill C-391 to shut down the Registry.

In the meantime? I have another thought that has been spurred from an acquaintance. I’m going to chew on it this weekend.

I’m also going to look up and review “good faith”…

Bill C-391 Vote in the Canadian House of Commons

164 – Yea

137 – Nay

 

This is FAR from over. We are on the beach and we aren’t going back.

Expect the Anti Propaganda machine to ramp up. Expect more politically motivated crap from Billy Blair and other directions.

They are just as motivated now.

NOT ONE INCH!

If I had a rocket launcher? No son of a b*tch would make me a slave.

To the editor;

Re; ‘Gun Registry costly for taxpayers’, Oct. 19, issue.

The money to pay for the gun registry and licensing apparatus should come from the gun owners (after all, I pay my own way through my car registration fees).

If you want to drive a lemon Bev? Feel free to pay for driving it.

But the real issue is that we need tighter controls on guns in this country.

Tighter gun controls serve no purpose. Licensing controls are already sufficient screening for the firearm user.

My son was one of thousands at Montreal’s Dawson College on September 13, 2006, the day Kimveer Gill apparently tired of photographing himself posing “big ‘n bad” with his assault rifle and his Glock, and motored on downtown to take Stacy DeSousa’s life.

It’s funny how you don’t hear thousands of others screaming shrilly for things that don’t work? If you are self-appointed, as you appear to be? Your leadership is remarkable by the deafening silence of your supporters. Oh. I heard there was a car accident a few miles away yesterday, I guess that qualifies me as much to be an engineering expert as you are concerning your expertise about firearms.

You know what? Stacy DeSousa’s right to life was more important than Kimveer Gill’s right to play with guns.

Stacey DeSousa’s Right To Life is that important that she and every other person should be afforded the ability to be trained  with available technology to be able to defend her life without being dependant on others. Gun Control advocates such as yourself denied her and others the ability to survive. You hold her up on a pedastal to merely assuage your guilt and still scream for the things that will allow others to become victims. Your use of the words “right to life” is offensive.

We make such determinations all the time in a free society. That’s why we don’t allow people to own rocket launchers, for example. 

Uhmmm. I can own as many rocket launchers as I want. What I can’t own in Canada are the parts that go “BOOM!” and can hurt people.

To those who say guns are part of Canada’s heritage, I say so was slavery. Should we bring that back, too?

Slavery, huh? Funny. Slavery was ABOLISHED before Canada was formed as a nation. Free people that own guns will never be someone’s slave and that ownership is an effective deterrent to someone with the notion to try and re-establish it.,

How many male eunuch slaves were you hoping to aquire Bev in order to satisfy your craving for power and control over men? You might want to cut their tongues out too. They could accidently make comment that could trigger your assertions of a negative memory of being called “fat” by a boy. 

Care to join me for a bucket of ice cream after some greasy cheeseburgers and discuss this further? I’ll even let you pay if it will accomodate your need to be in control.

Before you take me up on this offer? I REQUIRE you to read about Canada’s heritage. SPECIFICALLY: LIBERATION OF HOLLAND FROM NAZI GERMAN CONTROL. My Regiment has NorthWest Europe as an awarded battle honour. There are many other Canadian Regiments and units as well that proudly display that distinction of our CANADIAN HERITAGE.

Don’t insult the Regiment. Honour dictates it is to be defended…
