I dunno man, write to the government and ask for your $100 back?

Obviously the proposed laws aren't great but even then, calling the license 'useless' is a but hyperbolic.

After the c21 ammendment passes the only restricted firearms that Wont be banned or freezed are shotguns I won't even be able to buy tactical semi auto rifles which are also getting banned so I don't think I'm being hyperbolic. The whole reason I got my licenses was to shoot and collect handguns and tactical rifles and do a bit of hunting. It's just not fair. I emailed my mp, medicino, and polievre In early Dec and I just heard from polievre and it was just bullshit talking points and nothing about fixing the freeze and helping people like me. Anyways Thank you for your time commenting.

Your assumption is that Bill C-21 passes, or that it passes in its current form, or that even if it does pass that a future government doesn't repeal it.

I'm a cynic and a skeptic regarding this. The libs have the votes so it will pass its just a question of when. There are barely any examples of conservatives repealing firearms restrictions besides harper scrapping the long gun registry. There may not even be a way for polievre to win The cities are full of dumb library's and immigrants who will vote liberal because they brought them in and with 500000 more immigrants coming that just stacks more votes for them. I hope I'm just a negative and I'm wrong and you're right there's always a chance that polievre campaign Is skilled enough and there's a perfect storm which grants a conservative majority.
