Former MP charged after RCMP search finds over 400 guns in his Manitoba home

Former MP Inky Mark faces gun trafficking charges after more than 400 firearms were allegedly seized from his Dauphin home, Manitoba RCMP announced Monday.

Mark sat in Parliament for 13 years, from 1997 to 2010, representing the northern riding of Dauphin-Swan River-Marquette. Before heading to Ottawa, he served as the mayor of the City of Dauphin from 1994 to 1997.

The 78-year-old was arrested after police searched his home as part of a firearm trafficking investigation last Tuesday, Corp. Barry Kirby, of the Manitoba West District general investigation section, said. Kirby was the lead investigator in this case.

In addition to 439 guns, Mounties seized an antique cannon, ammunition and $300,000 in cash, Kirby said. Global's Katherine Dornian has the story.
