The federal government’s controversial firearm buy-back initiative is under fire, not for reducing gun crime, but for its soaring $742 million cost and lack of real impact on public safety. In recently leaked audio, even Public Safety Minister Gary Anandasangaree admits the program does not target criminals but serves political interests. The MWF has written again to Mayor Gillingham—copying all Winnipeg City Councillors and the Winnipeg Police Service—urging the city to withdraw from the program and prioritize real solutions that focus on gang violence and illegal firearms. Attached is the full letter along with recent media coverage.
