Just hoping that our one doesn't last long

here are the causes. Sounds familiar?
In early 2000, the Canadian Firearms Program released a report that showed that implementation costs were rising. Major backlogs in registration—largely as a result of firearm owners waiting until the last minute to apply—general increase in costs, fee waivers for early applications, and high error rates in applications submitted by firearm owners were all cited as contributing factors to the rising costs.[9]

In December 2001, the cost rose to an estimated $527 million for the whole gun control program which included the long-gun registry. The Canadian Firearms Program reported that a major factor behind the rising costs was the difficulty it had keeping track of licence fees collected
