He’s out in this weeks rumoured Cabinet shuffle, if there’s any justice left at all in this country.

I certainly hope not. His likely successor will double down hard on the firearms file.

Lol. Rugger.

It's gotta be annoying for Gary how Secretary of State for Nature Natalie is always buzzing around him.

Gary has been adamant that October 30, 2026 is the final deadline. If he doesn't meet and enforce that, he stands to lose his cabinet seat.

Alternatively they are sticking to that date to try and force the issue. If you go, oh we will extend it again you lose your short term leverage.

I think this will be the way forward. Provinces like BC and QC will have their own enforcement programs and everyone else can do whatever they want. Living in Northern Ontario, I can tell you that no police force is coming for people's guns, they don't have the capacity up here to do so and it would just be opening up a can of worms they don't want to go down.

I like the idea of devolving firearms down to a provincial issue. That way places like Que can do what they like and not screw over the rest of the country.

I see this as yet another wedge that could be driven between PDs/LEOs and citizens.

I don’t. That is the one strength Canada’s gun laws have over other countries is the consistency throughout the country.

I don’t want it to be like America where depending on which state, county, or city you live in or are visiting can drastically change what you can or cannot do.

The problem is the Feds playing politics with gun laws for the sake of playing games, not a issue which needs to be individually managed by province.
