The Liberals talk a great deal about gun control but don't get much done. They said they "banned" so-called assault rifles and promised compensation. Three years later every single one of these rifles that government said are "too dangerous for people to own" are still in the hands of the people who own them.
They talked about a handgun ban but decided to "freeze" them which prompted a buying frenzy. The result is there are now more legally-owned handguns in private hands in Canada than ever before in our history. There is also no approved mechanism to turn them in or dispose of them when an owner dies, leaves the country or decides to get out of the sport.
Other countries have managed to achieve both a handgun and semi-auto ban with compensation programs and yet the Trudeau Liberals are so staggeringly incompetent they can't manage either.
