Media continues to lie.

After the shooting at the Toronto festival, multiple media outlets have reported that the Toronto Police Chief has called for “gun control” and “tougher gun laws” in response to what happened.

However, the reports are highly misleading and inaccurate.

He actually called for tougher sentencing for those who commit firearms offences, especially in crowds.

He said: “We need some reforms that address that and recognize that if you pull out a gun in a public space, in a public square or the Eaton Centre or any other public gathering and fire it indiscriminately, that should be treated with the utmost seriousness in the law.”

This is just one of many examples that prove how biased the media is. Everyone knows that “gun control” refers to laws restricting the acquisition, transfer and possession of firearms, not tougher sentences for things that are already illegal, everywhere.

Make no mistake, the media is not on our side.

Just revert to the firearms act - and put Ontario gun owners under OPP supervision. Keep it away from Feds. Lets get back to common sense

They would say deal, then 8 years later keep them banned

Poly would absolutely jump on this. An 8 year ban would shutter all firearms related businesses. After 8 years, it would be impossible to restart the sport. Poly isn’t interested in public safety; they don’t want you to have fun with something that has been used in tragic events. By that metric, their goals would be accomplished.

I propose an amendment where not only are gun laws returned to their pre-2020 levels, but the government creates a program for another 8 years that heavily subsidizes (80%) startup costs for entrepreneurs who want to open ranges and gun shops. Also, all PALs/RPALs will continue to be renewed during the prohibition.
