So, you basically think that when Canadians broadly elected Trudeau on a platform of reigning in gun crime and banning assault style firearms, they were mistaken in their choice?
You're nitpicking a procedural issue, not grossly violating a charter right.
"You know it's bad when a conservative idiot panders to his base?"
"You know it's bad when Canada Post doesn't want to take on the responsibility of collecting and storing mass amounts of firearms, something they've never done before, have no training or expertise in doing, and would make them obvious targets for violent criminals?"
LMFAO. What the fuck are you talking about?
No, I didn't. I explicitly asked why anyone should give two shits about gun nuts participating in fake sports. Buy a big buck machine, or take up darts, they're cheaper and more fun.
Trudeau never reigned in gun crime which ruined his credibility, he had 10 whole years to accomplish that task, the statistics are public knowledge.
You call people who own firearms gun nuts but it’s a hobby just like any other, it’s like if I called people who like to knit sewing-freaks.
Frankly quite insulting and unnecessary.
That has literally nothing to do with the constitutionality of his mandate.
No, it's fucking not. It's a hobby that requires the mass manufacture and ownership of instant, point and click, murder tools.
Out of curiosity, in a perfect world and existing regulations excepted, what sort of firearm regulations would you like to see in Canada?
