    It was only matter of time.

    We often hear how this action somehow represented the will and desires of the majority of Canadians.

    Something Trudeau trots out at every single opportunity.
    I guess he too is relying on biased online polls to determine this...

    Oddly enough, the liberals spent a considerable amount of time and energy finding out what Canadians actually wanted
    Only to realize it wasn’t inline with what they wanted to do.
    They even went so far as to document that very fact: https://www.publicsafety.gc.ca/cnt/r.../index-en.aspx
    This is something they have now forcibly shoved under the rug, as they continue to point towards any online poll that agrees with their stance instead.

    Quite shameful the way this was done.
    A minority government, lying continuously to it's citizens, end-running democratic function, and forcing their own Agenda on the public via an Order In Council.
    This is NOT the Canada our forefathers fought and died for any more.
    And it has made me shameful of my own country as a consequence.

    JT just announced he's going to be unveiling a handgun ban shortly. Sounds like providing the legal frame work for municipalities to ban handguns in their city. It'll come down to "who" pays for the enforcement and prosecution of people who will be now classified as criminal for doing what they always have. https://vancouversun.com/pmn/news-pm...-2781b9153c1a/

    Re: hot off the press

    limit time..I know alot about guns...hunting guns and their regulations..dont know much about miltary guns other than they are designed to take life and used quickly and effectively. I,m familiar with rugers.

    My point is I have hunted for over 40 years and never had a need for a hunting rifle to have more than 5 rounds. This is a hunting site . Not a gun site.
    I agree and don't like he idea of a government telling me what I can and can't have . WE unfortunately have nuts like this guy in Nova Scotia who make all of us try and figure out how to prevent tragedy. In an ideal world we would have no restrictions.... and a government and justice system that practiced common sense. To believe that will ever happen is a pipe dream. If the criminal code used the teeth it has to deal with gun violence in the first place you would not need restrictions . Criminal offences that have teeth in the criminal code are not even close to being used correctly.

    We have a lot of good sound existing laws that the justice system doe not use correctly. Firearm offences have teeth..never used during most sentencing , so when the shit hits the fan the gun control issues come up.

    if you look at our history on hunting guns in North America, we have gone from using lever actions bolt actions and shotguns that were basic that did the job for over 100 years to all these fancy guns that have 31/2 shells ...longer ranges etc etc that take the hunting stalking and woodsmanship out of the picture. I'm old school and believe if you can't get it done with the stuff used for decades and decades get within 100 yards or so to a game animal and all of a sudden are using these modern guns that let you shoot further and further so you hunt from your truck and get out and shoot 400 yards... you shouldnt be hunting... you get my OPINION remember OPINION ..so you see I don't care if the gun companies stopped making the long guns that hold 10 rounds ..In all my years I can't remember needing anymore than two rounds while hunting big game and 3 rounds for birds.

    what I do not like ......like most posters here..... is a government telling me what to do . When and where I can do activities and not giving me credit for common sense
    There are alot out there that go to the gun range and shoot like they are in a war ...Shooting rapidly for many many rounds...Never seen the reason for that or the thrill.
    Im old fashioned and believe common sense is just that. Unfortunately as said there are people who do stupid things that create this very post.

    this is a hunting site and I get the fact that restrictions and censorship sometimes leads to more of each which could effect hunting.We are not truley free society. As these new changes have not changed hunting as they stand , I am not worried at this point. Don 't like GOVT telling me what to do but not worried as said at this point . If they try and take our hunting heritage and standard hunting guns away I'll be the first to try and prevent it

    Hi BP - I didn't intend to be controversial. My question was more about how unsure I was than anything else, and I spent the second half of the post explicitly stating that I am 100% against the legislation. I really appreciated getting such a great response from GD.

    While I understand that this is an emotive issue and that firearms owners have become a reviled group in the last couple of decades (despite 1 in 4 households being part of it), I do urge you to allow new members to the community to ask questions or ponder on points that might trigger some (understandably) negative emotions. I know a few people in my exact situation - starting out latter in life and without cultural yardsticks in our past to help guide us on the path forward. Having an open forum where people can ask such questions in good faith is something to be highly prized.

    My apologies if I did a poor job in communicating my thoughts - that's on me. I'm new (and had the added distraction of a toddler crawling over me all morning) but I'll try and see my posts in the greater context in future.

    Re: hot off the press

    My current belief is that we have enough hunters in Canada that we will be left alone for awhile. As our numbers dwindle which seems to be happening..it will be a problem. It might take 25 years... not sure .. but at our current state, most young adults don't give two cents about our hunting ....but most kids now a days are out of touch with our heritage and most Canadians don't look at where our food comes from , their own history, and that..is as dangerous as our govt.

    so I get the worries here...

    First they came for the Communists
    And I did not speak out
    Because I was not a Communist

    Then they came for the Socialists
    And I did not speak out
    Because I was not a Socialist

    Then they came for the trade unionists
    And I did not speak out
    Because I was not a trade unionist

    Then they came for the Jews
    And I did not speak out
    Because I was not a Jew

    Then they came for me
    And there was no one left
    To speak out for me

    Bollo

    The issues that fired people up myself included was our embarrassment of a PM and his latest idiotic move and then "pauly" and his comments, I myself was somewhat unclear in my post and attracted some critique.
