Recurring Canadaguns Politics and Debate Thread

Please post all your Gun Politics or Ban-related ideas, questions, initiatives, comments, suggestions, news articles, and recommendations in this thread. This thread recurs every 14 days.

First and foremost, this is a Canadian Gun subreddit, so keep it at least decently related to both of those things.

This thread is not for general politics, there are plenty other subs that are meant for that. Off-topic threads may be removed, especially if they are leading to personal attacks, flame wars, etc.

To prevent the main sub being flooded with dozens of similar threads, text posts complaining about/asking about/chatting about gun politics will be sent here.

We understand that politics is a touchy subject, and at times things can get heated. A reminder of the subreddit rules, when commenting, where subreddit users are expected to abide.

Keep this Canadian gun politics related and polite. Off-topic stuff, flame wars, negative generalizations against groups, personal attacks and gate-keeping will be removed. Please flag any comments to bring to the attention of mods otherwise exercise your upvoting and downvoting ability.

This ruling is a reason to be more optimistic about our chances at the SCC. In case anyone needed a bit of good news.

It is especially relevant for anyone who had their restricted firearm's registration Thanos-snapped.

And it's even better because it was a 9-0 decision against the current and former governments.

I still expect to lose. No way we see them reversed without a CPC government

Well the SCC wouldn't have taken on the case if they were going to agree with the Federal Courts determination/ruling. Personally I feel like we will get some W's but then the SCC will say something like "These OIC powers were illegal and FRT isn't legally enforceable, however a "stay of proceedings" will remain in effect for 12 months" so that basically gives Carney's majority gov to pass legistlation to just ban everything they already banned by OIC anyways, so we as gun owners may see no changes other than the CFP/Exceutive branch no longer being allowed to OIC shit anymore, which even if that's what comes out of the SCC case, is still a huge W.
