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.

Do you think the announcement of the Alberta referendum and the sudden “care” that Carney has for Alberta could have them scrap the buyback or increase the amnesty period? Since the gun grab is one top causes for the separation among other issues I would like to hear your thoughts.

It’s definitely possible, Smith hasn’t dropped it once, she brings it up hand in hand every time they talk about the referendum. I mean Gary confirmed it in the recording, they’re sending us to jail because Quebec wants it, so why remain in Canada for the bidding of Quebec.

While libtards reversing guns laws is hard to believe, Alberta being cool with criminalization of their guns is also impossible to believe, someone is going to have to back down, it’s pointing to Ottawa!

Side note, I found it hilarious how people shit on Alberta for this and especially Eby, yet we’re all ignoring the simple fact that Quebec is as power as they due to their own referendum.

So fuck off with calling Albertans stupid for this, wanna be mad, be mad at Quebec for starting it

Yep. Quebec started the perverse incentive here.
