The long gun registry does not cost $60-100 million dollars per year, the entire Canadian Firearms registry currently costs $66.4 million dollars per year, the long gun registry is a single component of that system.

Conservatives claim that the long gun registry makes up the majority of the Canadian Firearms registry expenses, so eliminating that component would save $65 million dollars per year. Liberals claim that eliminating the long gun registry would save $2-4 million dollars per year. The reality is that long guns don't make up 97.8% of the gun registries expenses like Conservatives claim, that's ridiculous, but it probably isn't as low as the Liberals claim either.
