It is time to kill it. The crooked Liberals already have another wave of corruption ready to go for the next time they fall into power, they've gotten all they can out of this one example.

(_http://sagaciousiconoclast.blogspot.com/2004/02/guns-fraud-and-big-numbers-in-canada.html) Quoting: "Corporations get sued for cost overruns on the order of tens of percent. Assuming my careful $10 million estimate is reasonable, the registry database is not 10 % over. It's not 100 % over. It's not 1,000 % over. It's 7,500 % over." One certainly hopes this Bill makes it through the Senate, etc. and into law. The GR will surely become a political catch-phrase for waste and irrelevance.
