Can anyone confirm the .22LR GSG-16 is on the upcoming ban list? I ctrl-F the document but could not find it.

With any luck, this amendment won't pass. It may even result in Bill C-21 never getting passed.

German Sports Gun

81 The firearms of the designs commonly known as the MP5 submachine gun and MP5 carbine, and any variants or modified versions of them, including the......l) German Sport Guns GSG-5;(m) German Sport Guns GSG-522;(n) German Sport Guns GSG-522P Pistol;(o) German Sport Guns GSG-522PK Pistol;

These are the ones listed in the document that I found. Does the 16 count as "any variants or modified"?

edit. I just looked up GSG-5 and am assuming the 16 is the newest version of that gun.
