What do you all think the chances of liberals pulling another stunts like banning semiautos through OIC or tabling a stand alone bill?

High and it'll likely happen soon. The Liberals took an L on the two amendments they wanted but have promised their pet gun control groups another run at the same legislation, and probably a standalone bill.

I'm seeing a lot of people say this, and then immediately after seeing a lot of people saying they're going to wait at least until C21 goes through to try again. Both have compelling arguments as to why it will/won't happen soon, so I'm just confused as to who to believe.

No one has a correct answer. "Expect the worst, hope for the best" as been pretty reliable.
