I still don't think the Liberals will issue additional OICs given the current supreme court stuff.

Not to mention they can't really touch the SKS because it's used heavily by the first Nations.

Not that is any guarantee and don't get me wrong, it's a tragic event but we need more details

They aren’t above blatant racism. SKS for natives but nobody else isn’t out of the question.

Yea God forbid they redtrict their ancestral practices of using semi auto rifles and spotlights on pickups.

Judging by your tone, do you think they should ban the SKS because it's not an ancestral weapon used by First Nations?

I'm just highlighting the irony of first nations holding them back from extending their agenda to what for once is an actual "weapon of war" while they skip around it and have no shame in banning ridiculous stuff like bolt action rifles.

Do I think the SKS should be banned? Not really. But if there's a gun their fearmongering should apply to, it's pretty much at the top of the list lol.

Ok, I understand your point and I agree, thanks for clarifying.
