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.

Imagine the unholy tantrum poly is gonna throw when the SCC case is won in our favour. Perhaps I’m being too hopeful

I'm not sure if this is a joke or not, but the SCC ruling in our favour would make it much harder for the libs to try and pull something like this again in the future.

You can't just reintroduce a new bill doing the same thing that was deemed unconstitutional by the courts, thankfully.

The courts would say the government can’t ban through OIC, the government can just use their majority to ban through parliament
