I am in full support of this legislation as a hunter/farmer. Under the current system we have three types of firearms classifications. Non-restricted, restricted, and prohibited. Non-restricted is long firearms like rifles, shotguns, etc. Restricted are handguns and long arms with short barrels. Prohibited includes fully automatic weapons and a few high calibre weapons that really have no use civilian use anyway, as well as the odd handgun.
The new legislation removes the need for owners of non-restricted firearms (long guns) to register their firearms with the government. However, a Possesion and Acquisition License or Firearms Acquisition Certificate are still required to purchase these firearms. Owners of restricted firearms must still register their weapons, and of course prohibited weapons are just illegal all around.
For the record, not all political parties agreed to this legislation. Only 1 party did, plus 2 members of parliament from an opposing party. BUT the Conservatives have a majority in the House of Commons, and because of that they were able to push the bill through. The bill is not yet law, as it needs to pass through the Senate, which is Canada's higher house of parliament. It is expected to go through though as the Conservatives have a majority there as well.
