A new Bill proposed by a Manitoba Conservative MP called Bill C-391, that eliminates the need to register firearms in Canada, will go through a Commons committee this Wednesday November 4. Gun-control advocates are worried that the Conservative government has enough support for the Bill to pass. The Bill will eliminate the need to register firearms and shotguns and already registered guns information can be destroyed and thrown out. The Bill still has to go through a Commons committee, on Wednesday, and then the Commons itself and the Senate. If it passes on Wednesday, the registration system will diminish, since its passing in the mid-1990s under Jean Chretien.
