The Great Gun Control Debate- 2.0

[Halifax Tar]

The Toronto Star and others have amended their headlines blaming their use of the word "weapons" on "poor translation".

Selectively, if you ask me. They have a ton of big shiny heads there to pruf reid stuff, but they have to push the red narrative and do damage to the cause of lawful gun owners. I'd love to know why they really changed it.

This was all political spin and bias on there part. I'm just surprised to see them back peddling.

Ottawa Police Service is out. Posted on their FB page.

That's gotta sting a little...

The Québec municipalities of Gatineau and Valleyfield will not support the program. However, that mean little in the big scheme of things as the SQ and SPVM, the two largest police services in the province, are still 100% onboard.

While gun owners take this as positive news, they are losing sight of the fact that as of October 31st, 2026, those who did not participate in any of the program's options will be criminals. Those police services, provinces and communities who are not participating are helping to establish a new class of criminal. Eventually, those who failed to participate will face enforcement action. It may not happen right away, but this LPC government will be in power for another 3 to 7 years.

About time.

I have to agree. My grandson wanted to use my pellet gun to knock off some squirrels. I said no - too many chances of things going sideways including people who would report him. I don't want the local SWAT guys around their house.

About time.

My kids have Glock19’s and AR-15’s. BUT they are locked up in a (rather large) safe, with no access to them without my wife or I being there.

I don’t understand how any parent can give minor children access to firearms, because even the best intentioned children are still children and can make mistakes.

I remember that case and it really angered me that the father was that uncaring and stupid.

I bought my kids rifles - for them to use. I own them, they're locked in my gun safe(s) and they have no access to either the gun room, nor the safes.

They use them under my direct supervision only.

My littlest minion is pretty good with hers - it's a Ruger Precision Rimfire in .22 LR.

Some members of our community are worse enemies of our community than the anti-gun folks themselves.

My daughter as well. She's an excellent shot.

My daughter prefers the M240 Suppressed -- she's 14
I told her she needs a job to pay for the ammo, that she wants to shoot...

Halifax Regional Police will participate in the gun grab. Their Chief feels that reducing the amount of guns owned by hunters, farmers and sport shooters is a good thing.

The CCFR and other will hold a rally against the gun grab in Halifax on April 10. Details can be found on Facebook.

Your Police chief is a dunce. As is Winnipeg's....

Complete clown.

His statement is embarrassing. Just say your guys want overtime to man the buyback desk.

Linking it to an epidemic of intimate partner violence when the leading cause of death is stabbing is just smoke screen. (70 percent of the time it’s not firearms)

It’s just money. Say it. I hate domestic violence. We re up to our eyeballs in it all the time. Guns are not the route through the issue and it’s a poor reflection on HRP management.

Halifax Regional will have their top man on it.

About time.

I would disagree with the murder and manslaughter charges. He did not kill anyone himself, that is the actions of his son. He did not council his son to kill anyone, he isn't a accessory. The reckless conduct charges make sense though, as his actions absolutely fall under it.
