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.

The CCFR's Supreme Court challenge is the only thing I have hope for at this point in Canada. IMO the trade dispute will be kept as an issue for as long as possible because it's keeping Carney's polling numbers high. Everything else is going down the toilet in Canada.

1000%. The trade issue will be made to outlive trump. Its such a perfect tool. Things go well, the libs win for playing 5d chess. Things go poorly, the libs win for taking a stand.
