News / Politics / Activism Door-to-door?

Mr. Anasangaree is once again tap dancing when it comes to answering questions about the confiscation program.

He doesn't accept Mr. Lloyd's figures regarding the 2% participation rate, and obfuscates with current participation figures that are supposedly meant to inspire confidence in the program.

According to the Public Safety Minister, police will NOT be going door-to-door to collect prohibited and illegal firearms. Seemingly millions of Canadians will be criminals, in possession of these "weapons of war", but the Public Minister suggests local police services will enforce the law with no specifics.

Additionally, Mr. Anasangaree adds empty rhetoric regarding the effects on crime this program will have, citing the mass casualty report that followed the Portapique shootings which were committed by an unlicensed criminal known to police, with illegal firearms.

Enjoy!

Yooo that’s crazy. Cutting over 100 million from Correction Services Canada most of it being for rehabilitation and reintegration (like the most important part so people don’t commit crimes again) but the have 700 plus million to spend on taking guns from people who have never committed a crime.

Because it’s never been about public safety. It’s about disarmament.

You'd think Canadians would show a little more resentment to a corporate banker elite disarming the working-class, ESPECIALLY after the Minister responsible for overseeing said program was caught admitting himself it does nothing for public safety, was only for Quebec votes, and was ordered by Carney to follow through and do this, but I guess I shouldn't be surprised anymore after the last 10+ years.

The people who voted for him seemed to be more concerned with Trump than anything domestic.
