News / Politics / Activism Recurring Canadaguns Politics and Debate Thread

Please post all your Gun Politics or Ban-related ideas, questions, initiatives, comments, suggestions, news articles, and recommendations in this thread. This thread recurs every 14 days.

First and foremost, this is a Canadian Gun subreddit, so keep it at least decently related to both of those things.

This thread is not for general politics, there are plenty other subs that are meant for that. Off-topic threads may be removed, especially if they are leading to personal attacks, flame wars, etc.

To prevent the main sub being flooded with dozens of similar threads, text posts complaining about/asking about/chatting about gun politics will be sent here.

We understand that politics is a touchy subject, and at times things can get heated. A reminder of the subreddit rules, when commenting, where subreddit users are expected to abide.

Keep this Canadian gun politics related and polite. Off-topic stuff, flame wars, negative generalizations against groups, personal attacks and gate-keeping will be removed. Please flag any comments to bring to the attention of mods otherwise exercise your upvoting and downvoting ability.

So how the fuck are liberals this high in the polls? Are boomers coming out in force this hard? Winemoms in suburbs? Everything has gotten more expensive, we are literally starting to be in the " cutting back on every program " phase of government and they still support? On almost every metric we are worse of than fucking Alabama??? 

What the actual hell is going on with people? Is this country even for me anymore?

Couldn’t agree more. I’ve recently spoke to two (boomer) voting conservatives. At least they voted conservative this last time and they both hate pierre now. They say they almost regret voting for him and carney seems to be doing a good job. I tried to pick their brain a bit more and I realized they just consume the mainstream media. It’s as simple as that, comfortable people watch the brainless news in the morning or while they’re at the dentist and that’s where it ends. No more thought other than that. It’s actually surprising these folks still voted conservative last election.
