50 years is a long time to keep a gun. How many things does your family have that they bought 50, 40, 30, even 20 years ago?

be 4 or 65 million the cost of the gun registry is chump change compared the over all budget.

An appointment to the Canadian Senate is like winning the cash for life lottery. Senators earn $132,300 a year as a base salary, serve until age 75, and last year sat in the Senate for only 69 days. The total cost for Canadian taxpayers to maintain the Senate in 2008-2009 was $90,232,000.


Get rid of the senate. that will pay for the gun registry and have money left over.
