CANADA – Federal ‘buyback’ scheme cost taxpayers $42 million without confiscating a single firearm
“This is a boondoggle, and it hasn’t even begun,” said Plett during the Senate question period on Friday. Over the past four years, the feds assigned 60 department employees to work on the project, in addition to 15 from the RCMP. “$42 million spent, 83 people employed full time in Ottawa … for what?”
Premier Danielle Smith says Alberta is “not going to do anything to help” the Trudeau Liberals confiscate legal firearms. Smith tells Rebel reporter Alex Dhaliwal that Ottawa should focus on guns in the hands of gangs, not on sports shooters and hunters. ‘I wish them continued success at being able to achieve zero with their program.’
