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.

Guys I have honestly never seen a population as fucking stupid as ours in the developed world. I can’t think of a single thing about Canada that is materially better because of the Liberals, yet Canadians think this is not enough reason to change parties after 11 years. Maybe it’s self-hatred. The left won the culture war in Canada and leftist ideology often stems from self-hatred.

It’s crazy seeing Carney again saying that we’ll need to make sacrifices and there is going to be pain for the next little while, it’s been fucking over half a decade that our economy has been on life support and young people have been putting off starting their lives. Ironically it’s all old people with tons of wealth and all the time in the world telling us this lmao. Somehow I don’t think the LPC will deliver.

Yeah they can fuck right off with the sacrifice bullshit, drawing blood from a stone. We already can’t afford housing, groceries or starting a family. I guess some of us need to cancel our Disney plus!

This country is done for.

"It’s crazy seeing Carney again saying that we’ll need to make sacrifices"

It's such fucking bullshit to like okay then can you sacrifice wasteful nonsense that doesn't help us like the gun ban. No. Okay how about reform OAS so it's not such a money pit giving money to people who don't need it. Also No. Hmm yes real pragmatic all this is.

Oh but didn't you know, statistics canada told us today our economy grew 3% this quarter! LPC will trot that out like crazy.... while refusing to mention that is ONLY due to high oil prices and Alberta.
