Scrap gun registry, Tories say

The Conservative Party of Canada would scrap the gun registry if it forms the next government, a CPC news release says.

“Our current member of parliament should clearly state how she intends to vote when the gun legislation is introduced to Parliament,” the Conservative candidate for the Nunatsiaq riding, Duncan Cunningham, said in the press release.

The news release says MP Nancy Karetak-Lindell was absent from the House of Commons when the legislation establishing the gun registry was first introduced under the Chrétien government,

“The inaction of Ms. Karetak-Lindell has caused hardship for many Nunavummit and demonstrates that she has little or no influence on the policymakers in the Liberal government,” says the release.
