I'm going tomorrow to Crappy Tire to buy me a tube of that there wheel bearing grease, and a bolt of burlap cloth. Then I'm gonna grease that there cloth up real good, wrap my model 39 Cooey single shot in it, and hide the old Cooey in a hollow basswood tree in the swamp. This reverts me back 48 years to when I actually did this as a 10 year old kid. Had to, or Mamma would have chopped the gun up with the axe! Glad I've got a single shot muzzel loader and a Ruger 1!

I am less pessimistic about the future of firearms ownership in Canada. Other nations have banned handguns and assault rifles but continue to have well-established firearms and hunting communities.
The current legislation means I can continue to own and enjoy my handguns. Some clarity about the magazine restrictions would be helpful as limiting all long guns to 5 rounds would affect one of mine. Until there is clarity the typical moaning, groaning and rending of garments serves no purpose.
Right…..YOU get to own and enjoy your handguns. No newcomers to the sport allowed.

Badenoch I don't know how old you are but I am 53 When I was in grade 9 they taught gun safety in Schools in NB. When I was in High School (Grades 10 - 12). I use to bring my gun to School (In the trunk of my car) so I could go hunting afterwards sometimes with one of my teachers. When my mother was in school back in the 1940's they brought their guns right in the school.
So yes up until approx 1990 Gun knowledge was taught in Schools.

Has too much time on their hands
In Chatham in 1980 myself and others would walk through the front door of the high school with a cased shotguns and shells, but since they wanted to make sure we didn't put them in our lockers after a few weeks the trap club members were told to take them to the shop class door to be locked up until after school. Now walking near a school with a pellet gun gets you shot by the police.

Another one in Canada and I could see semis, levers and pumps going the same way.

Yes, and the libs have been using it as a wedge issue after Mulroney and company started the ball rolling with the FAC. The Libs discovered how popular an issue it was and just keep tweeting it and emphasizing the dangerousness of gun. Fundamentally They almost seceded in convincing those who didn’t know anything about them, that firearms were animated object capable of levating off a table, and killing people without any human agent operating them. Then came the horror of École Polytechnique, that started the end game, that firearm were to accessible and dangerous to have around period! Guns have become a wedge issue that JT has twisted to his advantage in the last two election. I’m sure if opposition parties fell in line with gun control, JT could use the old stand by, don’t believe them they have a hidden agenda.
You don’t stop hunting because you grow old. You grow old because you stop hunting.

Sadly I do believe gun shows will now be a thing of the past, all thanks to JT and his merry men.

Thank You for this post.Opened some questions in my mind.
No challenge DanE-but i swifted thru the Agenda related to firearms.
I saw lots of talk about control/reduction and elimination,plus ban on certain arms.
All on State level,talking about preventing suffering from wars and armed conflicts.
Failed to see where this directs towards impacting the small guy.
Maybe i missed soemthing?
ps-I am neither naive ,nor blind believer of most high level "decisions".

Like Alan Rock I think much of the Liberal mainstream has thought only the police and military should have firearms but if you talk about the WEF I think we can conclude that if you "own nothing" and rent anything you want it would fall into that category. I keep wondering who would actually own the items, the government? Big Business? Not eating meat also ... maybe.
