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.

Dont waste your time, this sub is full of "single issue/gun first" voter.

They look at the USA right now and dont see an issue, or delude themself thinking that "our" Right is different for some reason.

I tried to argue in good faith in the past, and they are either brainwash, bad actor, braindead, completely disconnected.

Wow. Calling an entire community “brainwashed” or “braindead” because they engage in discussions about firearms isn’t an argument, it’s a dismissal. Plenty of people here are capable of nuanced thought and care about more than just guns, but it's also a firearms sub, do you go to mcdonalds and expect fine dining?

They look at the USA right now and dont see an issue, or delude themself thinking that "our" Right is different for some reason.

The idea that any Canadian conservative or firearms enthusiast automatically mirrors the US right-wing wholesale is factually lazy. Politics and culture aren’t carbon copies across borders, and assuming they are just makes you the one being disconnected.

Even our right wing parties still maintain what would be considered incredibly leftist policies in the states.

If anything, engaging with the community critically, without painting everyone with the same brush is the way to actually have a discussion, not whining that they don’t conform to your assumptions or align 100% with your beliefs.

Not a big fondue guy because the cheese fountain is a pain to clean.

Plus cheese is expensive and I've got a 22LR problem. I should never have started buying high end eley and lapua. Ugh.
