The Great Gun Control Debate- 2.0

Which foreign influence puppets would that be?

The Chinese. The Russians. Not only that but the old Soviet method of influencing and infiltrating academia is well known.

Meh….we got enough hippy/dippy, touchy/feely kumbaya, love the flowers types to push the anti-gun agenda that I would suggest it is far down the list of what the Russians or Chinese are going to be concerning themselves about as far as they are concerned about things Canadian.

Where do you think that originated? The Soviet Union. Trudeau Sr was one of their minions

Should we be taking bets on when they come after SKS’s?

My bet would be by December this year. The Liberal gun-banners love their anniversary ban announcements. Of course, they will put in an exemption for FN hunting. Review your family tree and get your status card now.

IMO, never.

And, as a law abiding firearms owner, everything lost was reported to your local police as per CCC 105(1)(a), right?

"with reasonable despatch"

GOC thinks making gun owners wait 6 years is reasonable, seems fair to use that as a guideline

I am seeing on some of the gun orgs sites they are claiming the amnesty has been extended a year but I haven’t seen a official government statement on the topic yet.

Yup. Now 30 Oct. 2026.

But Carney promised. And he's such a honest and stand up guy.

Kicking the can down the road - like this government does. Like most governments do

Here's what I think the liberals should do instead that I think would be more effective at achieving actual "effect" (reducing gun violence), appeasing the anti-gun lobby, and assuaging gun owners.

Instead of mandatory buy back that can't be properly funded, make it a voluntary buy back at full value of the fire arms.

Here's why.

We know, and Carney isn't stupid so I'm pretty sure he knows, that most lawful fun owners aren't the problem. But, there is a risk that the guns owned by lawful gun owners get stolen and become used in crime. However, "serious" lawful gun owners (the ones who don't want to give up their guns) are also some of the most ardent at safeguarding their guns. Their guns are less at risk of being stolen and used in crime. The real risk are those who take their ownership less seriously (maybe they've "grown out of guns", maybe they've moved to an area where using there guns is no longer convenient, etc). Make an ad campaign targeting these individuals, and offer them full compensation for their guns.

You still get to appease the anti-gun crowd, and you remove (some) of the guns that might actually end up in crime, and you avoid pissing off gun owners with mandatory and sub-market value buybacks.

And maybe provide an exemption for all CAF, former and serving and any LEO former and serving.

Want to own a restricted firearm? Do do some time in those realms.

Would help with recruiting. Most of them have had previous background checks and firearms training.

Also creates a pool of people that could be called up as a reserve if shit really goes down.

How about no buyback period and we just allow all Canadian citizens to own their property that they became licensed to own.

There was nothing wrong with the general system in 2015. The named prohibition of certain firearms, magazine restrictions, and range only restrictions were really the only dumb ideas that made the entire system contradictory.

Let’s just go back to that system with some logic applied to the three contradictory ideas to make the system overall more rational for legal licensed owners.

Spend our time, energy and resources on actual criminal firearms use.
