Post image

Not sure if this is allowed on the sub but I saw this pop up, If anyone lives in the area and is interested in trying out the IWI Carmel before purchasing it I think this would be a great opportunity! Easthill Outdoors is in Clarington ON

Not under this government, but give it time. We had to wait more than a decade to scrap the long gun registry, but we got there eventually.

As long as you know what's going to happen to it. 99%+ of the people who buy one of these things are not going to have the balls to keep it in defiance of the law, and are just going to be pissing money away when they inevitably surrender it.

Even if we do get a conservative government 10 plus years from now (God willing Canada still exists) will they really be interested in undoing and old policy that the average Canadian won't even care about? I understand Harper got rid of the LGR but that doesn't automatically mean a future conservative government will repeat. I have total faith PP would but something tells me we'll sadly have a different leader in 10 plus years.

Yes, if you stay on them. You are probably doing a lot of what I'm going to write but I'm saying this for everyone:

First try to win the next election. Go out and volunteer for the CPC. Knock on doors. Convince friends and family to vote for them. If the conservatives win then keep writing and meeting with your MP, stay on them, say that making that change is the best way for them to keep your vote.

If they lose and they change leadership then buy a membership and make it clear to leadership contestants that it's a big issue for you and vote for the ones that promise to follow through.

Change is hard but it is possible if we get involved and act. It's not possible if we wait and hope or if we give up.
