This government has run its course. Sooner or later we will have new leadership and sure as shit won’t be bloc, NDP or greens. With all the scandals popping up left right and centre libs are on their last leg

Will a new Con government reverse any of these bans though? I haven't heard them talk about it at all.

My trainer at the firearms course told us that unfortunately, gun legislation only goes one direction in Canada, the best we can ask for is no new regulations. Not enough people in Canada care enough for politicians to make it an issue to run on.

If you read the platform, the conservatives plan on reversing the may 2020 pic (ar ban) and that's about it

The PCC plans on making (good) changes to the firearms act as well as reversing the oic, taking away the rcmp's ability to make (probably illegal) changes to the frt and over all is pretty supportive of Canadian gun owners unfortunately however, they will likely never get a seat and only split the conservative vote which makes me hesitant to vote for them.

Yes the PPC have zero chance, so basically we have to hope the CPC cares enough. It doesn't look good for gun rights in this country.
