Application / Regulation advice Handgun Ban & SCC

I am seeing mixed messaging on here and wanted to get some clarification. Would the handgun freeze be lifted if CCFR wins at the Supreme Court of Canada? I thought the handgun freeze was a law now, and so that would be unaffected if the OICs were overturned?

Therefore the only way to actually acquire handguns in the future would be if a new government came in and removed the law.

Please correct me wherever necessary here

They said the same about the long gun registry. There are countries that were communist 35 years ago where you can go in and buy an ar-15 and take it out the same day today. Younger generations are more conservative and less afraid of firearms or susceptible to moral hysterics than any previous generations so I'm hopeful, even if it takes a decade we get them back and possibly more.

Not sure why you are being so downvoted, unfortunately to think otherwise is high level copium.
