Many who are complaining that the @liberal_party #C21 amendment bans hunting guns are pointing to the "GSG-16" as an example. Why would a .22 rimfire rifle be banned? Might have something to do with the fact it accepts a 110-ROUND DRUM which no self-respecting hunter would use

Given that @canadapostcorp is a crown corporation owned by federal gvt that has vast experience in delivering guns sold by manufacturers & retail stores, its refusal to provide its expertise for gvt's #AssaultWeapons buyback program (which majority of 🇨🇦s support) is unacceptable

Canada Post is refusing to collect firearms that were banned by the federal government in 2020, complicating Ottawa's plans for a buyback program to remove 144,000 firearms from private hands, federal sources say. .

Canadians elected a broad majority of MPs in favour of gun control and banning assault weapons in particular. The new government's mandate is clear. Time to get to work! @liberal_party @NDP @BlocQuebecois @CanadianGreens #cdnpoli #elxn43 #ElectionsCanada

Hey @PierrePoilievre , Why don't you tell Canadians which specific sections of #C21 "go after" gun owners or ban existing firearms, much less "hunting" guns? This is just divisive #FearMongering modeled after the #GunLobby 's brazen & ongoing #disinformation campaigns #ZeroShame

Trudeau’s Senators just passed the latest part of his plan to ban hunting rifles. He's going after trained and tested, law-abiding Canadians instead of gangs and gun smugglers. Common sense Conservatives will stop the Liberal hunting rifle ban and go after the real criminals

As PM, I’ll scrap the politically-motivated ban announced by Trudeau today and will focus on working with border and law enforcement on stopping illegal gun smugglers. I will also stop the Liberal soft on crime approach for partner violence and criminal use of weapons.

Yes, please tell Canadians how you consider the .50 calibre anti-material AW50 sniper rifle that can hit a target at 1,5 km and pierce light armoured vehicles as NOT being "assaulty-style" and that it should be legal for private recreational use.. #cdnpoli

Hahaha @Polysesouvient slams the @CCFR_CCDAF for “type of gun” used and then themselves uses a bolt action rifle ... is this “assaulty-styled” to them? Really? A bolt action single shot. This is what happens when you don’t have a clue what you’re talking about #SitDown 🤦🏼‍♀️

Police seize drugs & 53 guns (incl 24 prohibited or restricted) from #NB home. 27yr-old woman charged "for possession of a prohibited or restricted firearm with ammunition, without a licence or registration" (so 52 others were legal?) #TooManyGuns #cdnpoli

Actually, there is plenty of evidence that manufacturers design military-style firearms specifically to "comply with" (read: "circumvent") 🇨🇦Canadian law ... to make them non-restricted. That is why we need an evergreen definition #SaveC21 #BanAssaultWeapons

Very interesting, not only is there no evidence that manufactures are trying to circumvent Canadian firearms laws, they actually manufacture firearms specifically to comply with our laws.

#Japan ’s tough gun laws mean gun-crime is almost zero. In 2022 #Canada clocked 14K violent gun incidents (pop 40M) while Japan had 9 (pop 125M). That’s cause getting a gun is a major endeavour & only shotguns & rifles can be bought, writes @TashaKheiriddin

#GunTroll thinks seriously injured 6-yr-old boy shot by his 4-yr-old brother with father's unsafely stored gun is our "gun laws working as intented" because the father will be charged. Sorry, this is not how gun laws should work: they should PREVENT such terrible incidents

@Polysesouvient @rcmpmb In other words… someone broke firearm laws that already exist and will be charged appropriately. Gun laws are working as intended.

Internal gvt polling done over summer supports notion that @liberal_party are on the winning side of the #GunControl issue. From 4,000 Canadians polled: 70% in favour of “capping the market and banning the sale and import of handguns in 🇨🇦” #C21 @davidakin

"Police said they could not comment on whether the suspected gunman was a registered firearms owner." Why not? The gunman is dead. This information is readily available to police and government authorities. @FakihaBaig

So now it’s not just about “hunting tools”, but also about guns used by “sports shooters”? Would those include “handguns” and “military-style weapons”? Cause target shooting is the main reason for which those 2 types of guns can be legally owned #question
