IMO, all about buying city votes.
The west has almost zero Lieberal members in the Commons.
It will be interesting how this shakes out.
I think a lot of people were sure they would not be affected, so "I dont care" --- now OOPS!!
Like 1938 in Canada........

Love Canada, but if it ever leaves the commonwealth I'd suggest a second amendment and a CNRA. Revolting developments just keep jinxing my plans for a duck trip to Saskatchewan this Fall...Geo

Apparently, regarding 20mm or larger bores, it has "been clarified" that it does not pertain to shotguns.
But regarding the rest of the ban, what a crock of s_ _ _ t. And apparently there was a poll taken in major cities where 62% of the people felt the ban does not go far enough citing that there should be a ban on all guns. We are in deep trouble when the majority of citizens have been brain washed by false, inaccurate and politically motivated information. But this is what happens when, over the years, more and more people got out of hunting or shooting and never introduced their children to the true facts. As far as I'm concerned, firearms and hunter safety should be taught in schools. But that will never happen.

The solution is for the West to leave.

Trouble is that a lot of city dwellers who are non-hunters just see firearms as they are portrayed on the gogglebox and not the real world. Tough times ahead. Lagopus..

I think there are times when an actual vote is not what the antis want. They may say there are polls that support this or that, but their handful always know better than regular folks. Im sure theres coordination, but the interesting thing is the power given to an unelected appointee. Its similar in the US, blow smoke up the voters skirts, but run to a single appointed judge.

Didn't the last such ban sort of die on the vine, with the opera and its players costing "The Crown" about $C400 million? Folks up where we hunt paid little or no attention to it.

A little different scenario last time. The only real rollback we have had with our gun laws was the elimination of what was called the Long Gun Registry (all shotguns and rifles by owner with address and serial numbers). Our success there was most likely due to the government originally claiming it would cost $3 million Cdn per year and it actually cost $2 billion Cdn over 15 years. Non gun owners figured out what a colossal waste of money it was and so supported it's demise.

There is some interesting information coming to light about the validity of the polls and the pollster used by the government to justify this latest measure. Significant anecdotal evidence is surfacing that if you are pro gun, you will be removed from this pollster's pool of people they use to conduct the various polls they do.
