Ukraine didn't want them. And, by the time the Liberals actually figure out how to collect our guns, that war will probably be over.

The PS minister today said that provinces that "disallow" their citizens from participating in the compensated confiscation (TM) program are hurting their citizens. He also stated that he expects compliance and that provinces will have to get on board as this is a Canada wide program.
There is a finite amount of funds available and those provinces that participate will, quite obviously, consume those funds first. So, if you live in AB or SK, you'll likely get nothing because you will have waited too long. Remember, too, that in QC there is a functioning firearms registry so the SQ already know who has what. I'd guess we will see high compliance in QC which will deplete the treasury quickly.
In other news, in response to an order paper question from London area CPC MP Andrew Lawton, the RCMP have released that there are 14 known and registered SKS's in Canada.
As much as I detest this whole program, it is being done under federal criminal law, to which all citizens and provincial governments are subject, whether they like it or not. It wouldn't take much for the Liberals to use legislative mechanism to force police co-operation. And, as we know, the Liberals are not above throwing money at a problem to make it go away. This is a key plank in the Liberal platform. Danielle Smith and Scott Moe's' legal posturing is only going to hurt AB/SK gun owners in the long run. They will still eventually lose their guns and be out-of-pocket to boot.
I'm actually surprised that Minister Anandasangaree still has his job. Give his previous missteps on this file, he has to make this work or risk being replaced by a more radical minister. Watch for an announcement about guns in the next few days leading up to December 6, and also watch to see who is standing in the wings waiting for Anandasangaree's chair to be made vacant.
