Cop Survey Backs Gun Registry Scrap

An Edmonton police officer believes an overwhelming number of law enforcement officials across the country are in favour of scrapping Canada’s long-gun registry through a survey in a national police magazine.

And that’s against a latest stance by the Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police — including Edmonton Police Chief Mike Boyd — who say the registry “protects lives” across the country.

“When the police chiefs across Canada say ‘we represent the police and we believe in (the registry),’ I think my survey has proved them wrong,” said Const. Randy Kuntz, a criminal investigator with the Edmonton Police Service.-[source]
