This speaks volumes. While the rabidly liberal mayor of the city of Chicago is calling for more gun control (see "Emanuel proposes statewide gun registry"), the Canadian government is abandoning its registry all together.
As Canadian Public Safety Minister Vic Toews said: "It does nothing to help put an end to gun crimes, nor has it saved one Canadian life."
I'm inclined to suggest that someone get that message to the clueless mayor of Chicago. Gun registries do nothing to save lives.
But then he knows that.
He also knows that he has no cure for his city's crime ills. Thus the misdirection.
Anyway, the Canadians learned a valuable lesson. Maybe sometime in the distant future America's Democrats will learn it as well.

Well, the Canucks were told by their own people that the gun registry program was stupid and wasteful. It's good to see they finally admitted it and are going to change it hopefully, for the better. Meanwhile, our nannies are maneuvering us toward the same mistake to "control" our guns. On another issue, we move pell mell toward ObamaCare while the Brit. Prime Minister is trying to move their National Health toward privatization. Don'tcha love it?
