Application / Regulation advice home defense and Verney-Carron Flash-Ball

Post image

i was wondering with the violence increasing (i am in montreal, people break in houses is increasing) why Verney-Carron Flash-Ball is not allowed?

I check the law and I saw the joules etc but can we decrease the PSI of it? I know they're mostly associated with law enforcement in some countries.

just wondering if a company had release a news for an equivalent.

Edit: for **self-defense**

Except they can be used for home defence. In the event you think your life is in jeopardy.

Just be prepared to have your life turned upside down and pay six figures in court/lawyer fees.

Court fees vs. Violent assault/death. Hmmmm, what to choose

Oh don't get me wrong, I think our self defense setup is incredibly cooked in Canada.

But if we're talking raw semantics, you can't expressly purchase for self defense.
