There are no studies that justify the money spent on the long gun registry. Our Conservative government as well as Canadians know that criminals do not register their long guns.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2077502\" data-originallang=\"en\"> The choice is clear for all MPs. Hon. members can vote to keep the wasteful and inefficient system or vote to scrap it.</p>",
