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.

Nope - it’s happening. The build up and context of this to me points to a beneficial ruling in our favour.

Also speaking into the universe lol, that’s what I’m doing. I can’t wait till we get our fun stuff back.

sure hope so!

if OICs get canned, then my wishlist goes back to what the entire gun community wants: a revision of the archaic decisions regarding mag cap, suppressors, and the ban on ak/ar by name...

I'd imagine that we might see some reversals.

I think you’d better take a look at the composition of the Supreme Court. Maybe you’ll be less disappointed when the ruling comes.

As I said, might, it doesn't mean we will. Given the Supreme Court situation, it's unlikely, but that isn't a reason to give up hope.
