Agreed. As a Canadian that was born and raised in this country, I have definitely seen the dwindling of our freedoms, in recent years, especially with recent legislation.
The USA definitely has its fair share of problems but I will never understand dismissing positive aspects of their legal frameworks/society to compensate for the downsides of our state of affairs.
I mean I think as gun owners we have all seen the law turned against us by our own government. If we had legislative framework/charter provisions to prevent this, it would’ve never happened in the first place.
Edit: to those who are downvoting, is anything I am saying genuinely wrong or incorrect? I don’t understand how as Canadian gun owners, on a Canadian gun sub, we have neutered ourselves into thinking our current state of affairs is remotely ok if it means we are morally superior to the US.
I've lived in 4 different countries, been a legal gun owner in 3 of them. Im an immigrant to Canada and have watched this country deteriorate first hand. I try to make the best of what I can here like all of us do with guns, but its dishonest to say that we have more freedom than USA or that our situation isnt straight fucked.

While they have different laws that allow this, depending on who you are, its far from free.
