The Conservatives have effectively ended the Canadian long gun registry.
"Twenty years ago, the aftermath of the Montreal Massacre reshaped public opinion on gun control. Now, the House vote that ended the long-gun registry reopens old wounds - and has survivors fighting mad"
"Federal figures show most domestic murders involve long guns - 62 per
cent of the total, according to the most recent numbers available - and
most victims are women. In the past decade, the rate of spousal
homicides involving firearms has plummeted threefold. To advocates,
these are compelling arguments that... the licensing and registry of long
guns have saved lives."
