That is debatable and depends what political party you listen too. The Conservatives wanted to get rid of it more for ideological reasons. Once it had been setup, the costs of running it were actually quite minimal, $8-10 million a year as I recall.
It was actually very easy to do. I inherited all the firearms and registered them all over the phone in 1 hour. They just keep track of the serial numbers.
All Canadian police forces wanted to keep it.
