here's a good article from 1999 that highlight how fikken ridiculous the anti-rights crowd has been by targeting duck hunters
5. Alienating millions of honest citizens that police rely on to help them do their job
Finally, and most importantly, the government has made a serious mistake in targeting honest, responsible Canadians with their politically motivated gun registration bill. Duck hunters and target shooters never were and never will be part of the violent crime problem in Canada. The Commissioner of the RCMP even said so in a 1997 letter to the Department of Justice, "The RCMP investigated 88,162 actual violent crimes during 1993, where only 73 of these offences, or 0.08 per cent, involved firearms." In 1996, Statistics Canada reported in Canadian Crime Statistics that there were a total of 291,437 crimes of violence. Of this total, there were 121,291 violent incidents where weapons were involved but only 6,375, or just 2.2%, that involved firearms. Of the violent offences where firearms were involved, 74.9% involved handguns [almost all unregistered] and only 6.9% involved rifles and shotguns. Still the government ignores this evidence and plods ahead spending hundreds of millions to register 20 million rifles and shotguns which represent only 0.15% of the violent crime problem in Canada. So if hunters, farmers, collectors and sport shooters aren’t the problem, why criminalize and tax their remarkably safe and totally legitimate pastimes? What the government has done is turn 7 million law abiding firearm owners into potential criminal suspects. Consequently, this useless registry has undermined respect for the law and those dedicated officers who are required to enforce it. Out west, many are now referring to the RCMP as "Chretien Cops." This does not bode well for achieving our goals of fighting real crime and making our streets safer.
Police know who the real criminals are and they know how to catch them. Police desperately need more human resources and more effective crime fighting tools. Unfortunately, the Liberal’s bogus gun registry isn’t one of those tools. In fact, it’s depriving police of the resources they need to improve public safety and save lives in Canada. It should be scrapped immediately.

Those calling for stricter gun control are not trying to preserve their rights to not own a firearm, they want stricter gun control in order to minimize the number of firearms in Canada as well as ensure the firearms that exist are registered.
