Ottawa Citizen portal allows the public to search the Gun registry

http://www.canada.com/ottawacitizen/features/rapidfire/form.html

Have fun, search for incorrect data put for example 30-30 in the 'make' field

Then get majorly ticked off.

We were promissed that this data would never be made public, would never be online!

It opens doors to hackers to get our data, and sell it to organized crime. If you live in a remote area, be particularly wary, it's easier to track you down.

As it is, the portal gives enough information for organized crime to target certain areas.

Write your MP! It's time we dumped the registry for good. This is the last straw!

It is a betrayal. It was 'never' to be on the internet

The only way we're going to dump this thing is if we get a Conservative majority or the present government can blackmail the Oppositon parties into supporting them. right now, it looks like the opposite is going to happen and the Opposition parties are going to force the Conservatives to support Kyoto. More Bullshit.

I think most of the guys here know that I will never give up. I hope you won't either. We WILL wear them down.
