Date and Return Address

Hon. Anne McLellan MP
Deputy Prime Minister of Canada
12304 - 107 Avenue
Edmonton, Alberta, T5M 1Z1

Dear Ms. McLellan,

On May 19th. you announced that the $25.00 fee to transfer or register a
firearm is discontinued.

This means that effectively, you are rewarding persons who now may
comply with the legislation, while persons who obeyed the law are
penalized for having done so.

There is an obvious inequity in this move.

Under our Charter of Rights and Freedoms, 15. (1) Every individual is
equal before and under the law and has the right to the equal
protection and equal benefit of the law without discrimination and,
in particular, without discrimination based on race, national or
ethnic origin, colour, religion, sex, age or mental or physical
disability.

Therefore, in order to ensure my Charter Rights, to be treated
equally under the law, I am asking that the Government of Canada
refund all fees for registration and transfer of firearms that I have
paid.

I await your earliest response to this matter.


Sincerely,

Name
