Looks like a solid argument. Would be exciting to see what happens if they did win this case. The entire foundation of the buyback would be thrown out

If we win the liberals will just ban everything via parliament with their majority. But I assume they’d go the grandfathering route. The buyback only existed because Trudeau was jealous of the praise jacinda ardern got over the New Zealand one

During the 2019 campaign he announced they’d ban assault rifles right after the blackface shit came out, had to change the channel. Bans didn’t start until after portapique, but every previous government ban came with grandfathering. The day the first OIC was announced trudeaus itinerary had him talking with ardern before the announcement lol just pathetic. “Ya, I’m doing a buyback too”

This would make sense for them and would eliminate the cost debate because it will cost the government nothing to just grandfather. Treat prohibited long guns like they did with handguns, you can keep them and use them but no further sales are permitted, keep them until you die and eventually they all go away

If grandfathering happens there will no use. Be the same situation as the older guys with full autos and FALs
