News / Politics / Activism Stand on Guard - Conservative Party of Canada

https://www.conservative.ca/stand-on-guard-2/

The bill makes important changes to Section 34 of the Criminal Code so that force is presumed to be justified if used against an illegal intruder. Conservatives first announced the ‘Stand on Guard’ principle back in August, asking the government to introduce legislation in the fall session.

Considering how you HAVE to store your firearms and ammunition, you'd likely be in an illegal position before you ever had a chance to use it.

Pure posturing and even if it did pass (won't happen), you would end up in court, presumed guilty, trying to fight for your innocence in an uphill battle without changes to storage laws already in place.

Ain't gonna happen, no way, no how. Pure posturing.

I dont want to get educated by a bunch of mouth breathing maple MAGAs which is what I consistently find here. That and pictures of modded guns on cum blankets

“Maple MAGAs” is just a lazy way to dismiss people without actually engaging with anything they’re saying. Canadian firearms owners aren’t some American political import they’re ordinary Canadians (of all colors, stripes and flavors) who went through a federally mandated licensing process, background checks, safety training, and continuous eligibility screening. That’s literally the opposite of the caricature you’re trying to paint.

And the irony is you say you don’t want to be “educated,” which pretty much explains the whole comment. It’s easier to throw insults than to actually learn how Canadian firearms law works or why people disagree with current policies.
