Trying to take a page from the Canadian Firearm Act are we?

I did not say they were polled you did. But reading sentiment by other hunters gives us a clue on how they feel.

So as responsible hunters and firearms owners, we have a duty to be part of the solution and not part of the problem. Canadian hunters should raise the bar and aim to support the ban on “assault-style firearms” — which have no legitimacy in our hunting gear.

So what legitimacy do AR-15's have in FN's hunting gear?
I assume by your statement you don't consider them responsible hunters and part of the problem for keeping their assault rifles and not supporting a ban?...

Can you PRODUCE a verified poll by Angus Reid, Ipsos, anybody indicting your right in your assertion

Can you provide the opposite?....lol

Do you not agree that if the Liberals really wanted to ban ALL guns, that they could have done it in years they had back to back Liberal governments in Canada?

The fact that most hunters in Canada still have the same gun collection they had 40 years ago is any indication they did not want to ban all guns and that is why hunters actually favored restrictions on guns not used for hunting ie Ar15's.

I don't think hunters "actually favoured" restrictions. Most didn't care because it didn't affect them.

[Gun Nut]

"Mass shootings represent national awakenings and moments when seeming political or social adversaries might come together to find common ground, whether guns are allowed, regulated, or banned. Doing so, however, means recognizing that gun crimes, mental illnesses, social networks, and gun access issues are complexly interrelated, and not reducible to simple cause and effect. Ultimately, the ways our society frames these connections reveal as much about our particular cultural politics, biases, and blind spots as it does about the acts of lone, and obviously troubled, individuals."

This looks like an interesting read, impact, thanks. I did a quick skim of the article, but I'll need to take some time to do a better follow up on the ideas.

You don't stop hunting because you grow old. You grow old because you stop hunting.

Well hoping that Canada stays the same as she did over history in this globalized world , interconnected world makes no sense.

If your a purist why are we not all speaking Inuktitut and Ojibway or Cree? Why are the Scot's and Irish not speaking Gaelic?

So the dominant culture when we arrived was the aboriginal culture and next by immigration French?

Should statutes that reflect a bad time in history NOT BE TORN DOWN? Stalin and Lenin and Gadhafi would still be on their pedestals.

I see nothing to make me believe we are remotely like a communist regime here. There is not any sharia law here.

They have imported millions into Germany and its still Germany and its still missing statutes to HITLER.

Well you've teed this one up perfectly for me old chap. *Points bat over the wall at center field like Babe Ruth*

Please see my responses below in bold.

No one is hoping it stays exactly the same. Rather, many hope that it changes for the better, or at least stops getting worse. We can become kinder, more efficient, more productive, etc. without murdering basic truths and common sense. We can incentivize Canadians to have more children via income tax reductions or other benefits for families with 3 or more children, for example. We can fix our severely inflated and unsustainable education system that bankrupts our children to get more degrees than a thermometer in order to take an entry-level office job at $35,000. We can fix our healthcare system. We can bring back manufacturing and other jobs that have been taken overseas at the expense of the vitality and soul of small towns everywhere. We can send less money to other countries and help our vets. We can tackle the opioid crisis (which is related to the loss of jobs in small towns, the breakdown of the family/religion as per JoePa, and the reintegration of vets). These things all make lots of sense.

If your a purist why are we not all speaking Inuktitut and Ojibway or Cree? Why are the Scot's and Irish not speaking Gaelic?

Many Scots & Irish do speak Gaelic in Scotland & Ireland (and in some parts that’s all they speak), but less and less due to globalization/immigration. We’re all becoming one bland, generic blob in the name of increased profits and cheap goods. And we actually did learn the local languages, that’s how Catholic missionaries integrated with the Mi’kmaq in the 17th century. They accompanied them on moose hunts in Quebec and learned the language. Their journals quickly became very popular back in France as first hand accounts of the new world.

So the dominant culture when we arrived was the aboriginal culture and next by immigration French?

Not exactly. There was no dominant national culture because local tribes were at constant war with one another and they had absolutely no conception of country. The word Mohawk literally means ‘man eater’ in Iroquois. This is the natural state of tribal warfare in human history, where other groups are seen as sub-human. A country and culture like ours could never have developed under these conditions.

They became unified here through a lingua franca (English & French) and Christian culture, where the Catholics were permitted to intermarry with the natives and created a whole new people – the Metis. Same thing with Cortez and the Spanish in Mexico a little earlier. They created a whole new people – Latinos -- who embraced and united under Catholicism and the Spanish language.

Should statutes that reflect a bad time in history NOT BE TORN DOWN? Stalin and Lenin and Gadhafi would still be on their pedestals.

Not necessarily. Especially not by mobs of raving-mad pink haired, gender-bending spoiled upper class weirdos who never worked a day in their lives and who are among the most privileged people in the entire history of the world (as they complain about their oppression). These statues are part of our history, and at worst can serve as a stark reminder. We don’t have any statues of Hitler, Stalin or Gadhafi here though. Unless you think our first prime minister is a fellow traveler with such company? Besides, who gets to just take it upon themselves to start destroying things like that, based on their perception of 'bad times'?

I see nothing to make me believe we are remotely like a communist regime here. There is not any sharia law here.

Look harder.

They have imported millions into Germany and its still Germany and its still missing statutes to HITLER.

Germany is toast. Rape and violence are at an all-time high, many local terrorist cells, vandalism, attacks on Christmas markets and churches, etc. and a similar malaise among the people that existed after WW1. All because Germans still have this lingering WW2 guilt and decided to flood their borders with mostly young Muslim men to somehow atone for things they are not guilty of. Merkel and her globalist allies destroyed the country.

Thank you for coming to my TED talk. Goodnight.

LOL I am probably the minority on this forum, but what counts is in a general election and most previous polls indicate majority of Canadians wanted the ban.

That is not true they have a minority group voter base.

More in favor of the turd gone lol.

Ps most are unaware of the true problem.
A classic example of the doctors who thought it would prevent gang shootings.

Nicely written, well put....he won't get anything from it, he's doesn't accept facts, but the rest of us will enjoy the read.

Forgot about this.

Can’t wait to see the mental gymnastics from the libs as they try and justify this one

It usually goes something like this:

1) You’re crazy, (*insert specific thing*) is not true!
2) Ok so what if you proved me wrong? It’s not as bad as you claim.
3) It’s actually good that it’s even worse than you said, because we did bad things so we deserve it. I’m happy to give up my (*insert specific item or freedom*) for the cause.

Ends with self-flagellation every time.
