Welcome to Canada, is that butterknife registered?
For those not familiar with Canada's efforts to avoid dead people, several years ago, they introduced bill c-68, voila, the Gun Registration Act. Makes it a huge pain in the ass (an expensive pain) to get firearms and ammunition. It was projected to be a 2 mill project but by 2004 will have ballooned to 100 million.
In 2002 there were 149 murders due to fire arms.
There were 182 due to knives/stabbing.
Can we expect a national registry for knives? Will we need a permit to buy cutlery? Maybe they should all have serial numbers and you must be 21 before you can buy one?
Please share your thoughts.
