Firearm Owners
« on: February 02, 2014, 10:45:32 AM »

Many of you have likely heard the stories of Incompetence and / or the Direct Imposing of "rules" above and beyond current Canadian Firearm Legislation on the part of various Provincial Chief Firearms Offices (CFO's). BC's CFO has been but one of many engaging in these questionable practices. Many are getting more than a little tired of this...

Please be aware that there is a petition in effect courtesy of Cheryl Gallant ( P.C. member of Parliament). There is a new motion proposed to get rid of the Chief Firearms Office (C.F.O.'s), and replace it with a civilian run agency. That motion is M-439. Go to http://responsiblefirearmsreform.ca/ and you will see Support M-439 among the selections. Click on it and fill in your contact information to make your voice and vote known. This is very important. The CFO has got to go. It is the equivalent of a Dictatorship. Makes up its own rules as it sees fit. NOT a friend of the firearms community.

PLEASE: Take a moment to cast your support for this motion.

Cheers,
Nog

I haven't heard  any of these stories but it is a concern.  I am quite uncertain about which part of the laws were changed with the withdrawal of the registration requirment.  Or was it withdrawn or is that still in the pipeline?
