You watch. The Libs will back down on the C-21 "Ammendment" and say after listening to the public they'll admit the Ammendment went too far and make it sound like they're doing us a favor. Meanwhile they'll still put through the initial OIC ban and the handgun ban.

Trudeau's attempt at gun control so bad that it's shocking

It was just about a month ago that the Trudeau Liberals made a decision that derailed a piece of legislation that was broadly popular. In the ensuing weeks, it’s been shocking to watch how badly they’ve handled this situation.


Bill C-21, sold to the public as a way to enact a handgun freeze and to ban what the government describes as “military-style assault weapons,” had strong public backing. That is, until the Liberals went too far and added hundreds of hunting rifles and shotguns to the banned list.


“Our intent with this legislation is to target guns designed for the battlefield, not once commonly used for hunting,” Trudeau said.



The problem is, of course, that his legislation — and amendments his own government tabled on their own bill — do target hunting rifles and shotguns. His government has also had horrible messaging on this from the start, telling people they were lying despite a list in black and white showing the indisputable truth.


“All Canadians want to see less gun violence in this country, that’s what we’re going to deliver,” Trudeau said Wednesday while defending his bill.


I wish that were true because no one wants more gun crime except the criminals; Trudeau’s plan won’t deliver though. He’s made it easier for criminals to get bail, scrapped mandatory minimum sentences for gun smuggling and using a gun in the commission of a crime, while making life more difficult for law-abiding, licensed gun owners.


If the hundreds of gun models added to the banned list remain there, it will also push up the cost of the government’s gun buyback program. That was said to cost a few hundred million when first announced but that figure was estimated to be just over $1 billion before these new guns were added.


It could rise to several billion dollars if the government extends compensation for the ban.


At every step of the way, the Trudeau government has shown that they didn’t really think their plans through on this file. The amendments and addition of hunting guns to the banned list was another example of this.


Allowing this issue to linger over Christmas and into the new year is nothing less than shockingly bad politics.

Alberta seizes power from ‘hostile’ federal government’s gun grab

Alberta Attorney General Tyler Shandro issued a stern notice to the Trudeau Liberals, announcing the province is seizing back constitutional power from the feds to protect legal gun-owners from being persecuted under Bill C-21.

“First, as Alberta’s attorney general, I have directed that the Alberta crown prosecution service takeover the handling of charges involving the Firearms Act starting January 1st 2023.”

He said as things currently stand, the federal government handles these matters.

Shandro’s announcement on Wednesday effectively protects legal gun owners from suddenly becoming criminals if Bill C-21 comes into force.

This is absolutely massive. A sitting attorney general of a province has now openly said that a federal law will not be enforced in Alberta. The Rubicon has been crossed.

We can only hope that Alberta and other provinces continue to stand up to Trudeau and his ridiculous and increasingly tyrannical policies and laws.

Alberta says it will take control of prosecutions for banned firearms from Ottawa

Alberta’s justice minister says provincial prosecutors are to take over the handling of charges under the federal Firearms Act starting in the new year.

Tyler Shandro says he is also advising Alberta’s prosecutors that the province does not consider it to be in the public interest to go after law-abiding owners of banned weapons – although he can’t tell them when to lay charges.

Shandro says he has written to his federal counterpart, David Lametti, to advise him of the change starting Jan. 1 and says it is being done using existing constitutional rules and does not involve Alberta’s recently passed sovereignty act.

Shandro says he is advising prosecutors that if they plan to charge someone for having a banned weapon, they should consider whether the person owned the weapon before the ban and whether the owner is being charged with crimes related to using it.

He says the aim is to prevent criminalizing people who bought the guns in good faith before the ban and continue to use them responsibly.
