Lol.
Paywall Bypass: [https://archive.ph/6adRP](https://archive.ph/6adRP) (it’s a very short article).
Natalie ain’t gonna like that news.
less than 3% compliance lol
Ouch, what an absolute failure. That’s not even all of the AR-15S in Canada and is less than half of their arbitrarily low goal.
Now that’s it’s got a total amount of firearms declared, we can say with confidence that the total cost per firearm is going to be at least $14,000, while also having gatherered – at most – ~45% of expected declarations.
Wow, what a colossal waste of money and resources. Not that anyone is surprised.
Anything is a success when your goal isn’t to actually accomplish anything I suppose. I can’t wait to hear from these idiots what a great win for public safety this is.
I am beginning to enjoy the same copy paste articles posted weekly of how much of this policy is a failure, and the same comments over and over. It’s true though.
Stunningly wasteful, incredibly ineffective, polarizing and disengaging.
Literally the exact opposite of what policy should be.
Honestly not surprised. They were offering $2 for $2000 rifles
This has made me a one-issue voter. Leave the communism to the NDP or get voted out. (One can hope.)
I am shocked SHOCKED!
Well not that shocked.
Now that we’ve got all the guns off the street and MoUs with every country on the planet can we finally start addressing affordability in this country?
Or is that too much to ask for?
The Libs need to stay far away from gun control. They waste billions every time they try.
This money would have been better and is better spent giving anybody that wants it a 100bucks bonus to go to a psychologist. It would actually save lives
Thats like less than 3%. Gary looking like a absolute clown rn 😂
67000 too many.
The smart thing to do for Carney would be to admit that it is a giant waste of money, scrap the program, and add it to Trudeau’s failed policies and legacy.
I can guarantee that Carney would swing more votes his way if he did.
Scrap it along with C21, blame it on Trudeau, be a hero. Laugh all the way to the ballot box.
To put into context, the LPC spent 6 years and a 1 billon dollars to get a list of guns. Not confiscate, just a list. The 1 billion was spent before they even began confiscating. Meaning they are now going to spend even more money to get the guns.
67,000 guns out of 2 million.
Imagine what good that money could have done if it was spent on literally anything else since this entire country seems to be on fire now
I wonder how many illegal guns criminals have obtained in the same time this buy back has been happening
Well, given the estimated going price, and the first come first serve nature of the program with limited funds to go around. Yeah, I’m not surprised the numbers are so low.
Oh wow I wonder how many marbles Gary will fit in his mouth in protest
With the money wasted on this BS they could have bought 700 MRI machines (there are currently 500 in Canada).
There are very likely over 2 million firearms that have been prohibited since 2020. 67,000 declared is an absolute joke no matter how Natalie Provost lies to the public.
And Carney still supports this. Adult in the room indeed.
Remeber kids. The long gun registry had a 30-50% compliance rate, and was considered an abject failure.
3% isnt rock bottom.
Its the fucking mantle.
ha-ha, 6-7, a perfect womp-womp reply to a bad idea
That’s really bad, that’s **not even half** of the known, registered guns. That means half those owners know they might get called to surrender their guns but they chose not to take the money.
Add in the unregistered long guns like the Mini-14 that got prohibited (at least 1 million guns), 67,000 is an embarrassingly low takeup rate for the government .
Weird how in a country where basically all firearms are in the hands of enthusiasts (and I suppose some illegally acquired firearms owned by criminals) no one wants to give them up.
