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.

Gun control groups aren’t interested in the victims. Just looking for other things they can push the Liberals to ban.

They’re trying to renew public interest because they don’t like the fact that the government has been so quiet about it. Gun control has officially taken a back seat since the start of the trade war.

They’re also starting to get squeamish now that the court date is two months away. They’re trying to push the government to get this done and ban as much as they can before the courts can potentially strike it down.

They were extremely incensed that the government decided to extend the amnesty to 90 days after the Supreme Court renders its decision which is a signal that the government is probably going to let it play out. The groups wanted them to march ahead regardless because they don’t care if the government is within its legal boundary to do it or not. The groups just want their bans while the government and taxpayers deal with the fallout because to them, the ends always justify the means.

They’re not stupid. They know that in the face of annexation threats they’re losing support for the gun ban, so they want this done now.

They’re trying to stop the program from dying a quiet death.

They absolutely are stupid to not see this is already over. I don’t like papa Carney but he’s not the whipped bitch Trudeau was. This ain’t Carney’s project and there’s very little value in it for him. In fact it looks questionable banning guns while also saying we’re gonna get invaded or whatever other lies the “elbows up“ morons believe.

Because the difference with carney is he’s a global elite banker and has an agenda, weather is agenda is good or bad for us little folk will remain to be seen.

Trudy used the office of the Prime Minister to further his celebrity career, that fucking clown had no interest in Canada or even business, he just wanted to be famous and now he got it.

This is why Carney doesn’t give a shit (at the moment) about guns and keeps brushing it off, because to him, it’s simply not in the agenda he sees fit, which is growing corporate interest in Canada.
