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.

Montreal police Chief Fady Dagher was also at the ceremony. In his new role as president of the Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police, Dagher said tackling long guns, including the SKS rifle, will be a key priority.

“We can’t afford that in Canada, not in the community we live in,” Dagher said. “So you can count on me. This is going to be a major priority for me.”

Quebec continues to be the fucking worst thing to ever exist. It’s like ground zero for the biggest morons and egomaniacs the world has ever seen. They literally think they’re so special that they just deserve to get whatever they want.

On the flip side though that pansy ass police chief probably just said that shit to score some easy points and grandstand.

I swear I wish the rest of Canada had a say in voting to keep them or not because my ass would be voting to kick them out as soon as possible.

It pisses me off too because Quebec is beautiful but you could not pay me to live there because it is a queen nanny state and not just with guns. Their motorcycles laws too bug me. It is a monument how overly regulated everything probably is there
