Subject: PA-RKBA! federal firearms program is a billion-dollar black hole

Ontario's public security minister said Friday the federal government
should halt its gun control program due to spiraling costs.

"The federal firearms program is a billion-dollar black hole,"
Bob Runciman, the Ontario official, said in reference to an auditor
general's report that revealed a huge cost overrun in the 1995 program that
took full effect Jan. 1. Runciman said the estimated C$1 billion (US$650
million) cost of the program that registers gunowners and their weapons
should be spent on combatting cross-border gun smuggling and bolstering
local police forces. "This is an unconscionable waste of taxpayers'
money on an initiative that focuses primarily on law-abiding
citizens," he said.
