CTV.ca News StaffCanada’s controversial gun registry will undergo big changes starting on Tuesday, CTV News has learned.
The government of Stephen Harper will give the RCMP responsibility to register and keep track of guns in Canada.
And the types of guns being registered will also change. From now on only handguns and semi-automatic weapons will be placed on the list.
“Whatever the government decides, obviously we will support in any way we can,” RCMP commissioner Giuliano Zaccardelli said.
On Tuesday, Public Safety Minister Stockwell Day will begin the changes by announcing an amnesty for rifle and shotgun owners, a group of people who have long criticized the registry for targeting law-abiding hunters and collectors.
The changes will be announced as Auditor General Sheila Fraser releases the first of three yearly reports, including a review of the gun registry.
