If any of you are bored, there is a book called the road to hell which chronicles the Hells Angels rise to power, they are one of the foremost criminal organizations involving the smuggling of clean illegal guns in front the States, and China.
Making guns that are already illegal even more illegal isn't going to do a lick of good at all, the majority of the guns used in violent crimes are not sold legally in Canada, probably have had thier trackable serial numbers removed and are virtually untracable.
Its a half assed measure, now if the Liberal's got really tough on crime and said that a gun based offense was a manditory life sentence with no parole, then we'd be talking, but thats unlikely to happen under a Liberal Government.
Gun control is a complete pipe dream unless the Feds are willing to inspect every single package, crate and bag that comes into the country.
As it stands its currently nearly impossible to buy a active hand gun in Canada or a automatic weapon in Canada, so there's no point in spending more money on what would be a adendum to the gun registry.
Poor that additional money into the various police forces.
Oh and a snitch law, don't make me laugh, most people are not going to go against organized crime or a gun toting nut for a few dollars, its not worth it.
