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.

Tumbler Ridge documents reveal school shooter was ‘obsessed’ with guns

So Global news just said the BC Tumbler Ridge shooter is obsessed with firearms but then redacted many other crucial information and facts regarding to the whole event.

So besides trying to paint firearms as evil instruments of doom, they also hide many facts that create more questions than answers?

Because it’s Global news. They’ve been one of the worst news agencies when it comes to anything gun related, they tend to be very lopsided.
