A forensic unit to trace guns is great, but doesn’t really support owners. It might address a tiny part of the issue in getting cases to trial, but there is nothing there about addressing the shortage of prosecutors and judges

I think you're right. I don't see how this can change much for firearm owners.
That said, I do question if Alberta is big enough for it's own lab? If the RCMP already have forensics labs, wouldn't this just be a cost for Alberta we didn't have before?
