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.

Yes and it makes me cry 🥲

They get the fun selection the non highway robbery priced guns (and most items for that matter besides uh medication)

I must say (I understand Americans have different costs to us like crippling student loan debt and Healthcare) but the fact they are complaining about being unable to afford on their 70kusd a year (like what 110k for us?) While having way lower food costs etc than us makes me want to crash out.

Id kill to make 70k usd a year, fuck man id kill to make 70KCAD a year, fuck me even 60kcad a year would solve most of my issues.
