It will be however be summarized, and analysis done. It will be a cornerstone of any pro-firearms argument taking place in the HOC or other debate going forward, by all groups, including the NFA, CSSA, CCFR, OFAH etc.

Timing is everything. Now is not it.

Oh I agree with you fully that this is not the time for a big push on firearms rights. I was leaning toward the idea that we should always have a stronger voice and not just in response to certain events. Call it a Canadian-version of the NRA with more moderate people at the helm.

It's also not the good people in free countries that use guns for crime, it's bad people. TRUTH

Its not a slippery slope its simply society evolving for the betterment of the majority.Great Britain has had gun control for years,you very seldom witness events there like the mass shootings seen in the USA and Canada.New Zealand and Australia are just a few years ahead of us.

I am saying that I am not selfish, if Canadians decide they feel safer without my having a semi auto gun then so be it,we live in a democracy.

I don't think you can mention Trump and logic of any kind,he just advised us to inject ourselves with maybe bleach or maybe Lysol,OK maybe
UV light should be used . Do you want to borrow my tin foil hat. LOL

Then I challenge you to give up all your guns this week.

We push for more gun bans ?? Firearms kill and there is blood on the streets. One at a time till they are all gone .

It's not like we are living in Mexico where machine gun armed cartel are give out thousands of aid packages to the people of Mexico.

We are pretty safe the way they are in Canada, safe enough we we dont need the bubble wrapp any tighter than it already is.

Pretty sure some folks in NS don't feel so safe right now in Canada.

The guns bans were promised back last October in an election platform, no hiding it,right up front.Vote for me or not.

Most of the western Provinces voted in a block against the Liberals but did not carry the day based on this as a big issue.

No point trying to turn back the clock on this issue, a promises was made and it will probably be kept especially in light of this mass shooting.

BTW The leader in waiting for the Conservative Throne Peter Mac Kay is from Nova Scotia, he must be like a cat on a hot tin roof trying to figure out how he will oppose this gun control issue when he hits the Commons. LOL

Pretty hard to explain right now as they have a Dictator in charge down there by the name of Donald Trump.Oh but wait he has pretty well closed up the whole country to immigration,building that big wall,trying to exclude almost all immigration.

Mikepal "Poppycock!!

....the areas in any city with the highest violent crime rates are ones that are inundated with immigrants "looking for a better life". Just take a look at the EU countries..whole sections of major cities with areas cops won't even go into due to the violence perpetrated by immigrants gangs."


More right wing fake news stories.

It is also quite possible to hunt and target shoot in the UK, New Zealand and Australia even though they have banned certain types of guns. In the UK you can even shoot guns that are banned in Canada.
