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.

What I am saying is that the blackmail should be weak but the government has empowered it to be much much stronger then it has. Imagine for a second if you will if the government just chose to ignore it. Just stopped caring. What’s Poly gonna do? Have their 15 minutes on Tv and complain on Twitter?

Yeah I agree it might look weak to a normal well adjusted human being but to libs its the end of the world. If it was a CPC government they'd tell them to suck it and carry on.

The funny thing is if they just ignored it even as LPC nobody would care. But Carney ain’t all that pragmatic at the end of the say.
