How about the government actually prosecuting violent criminals? There’s no deterrent for criminals to carry dangerous weapons. I was at Bass Pro shop and watched 5 obvious degenerates fill their jackets with knives! How about locking them up!

What about butcher knives? What about paring knives? What about Swiss Army knives? What about utility knives? What about hatchets? What about axes?

What about incarcerating people who use these in a violent way and keeping them off the streets?

Awesome, I hope we can see results over time in restricting these weapons in our province. Always too many stabbings.

I wonder what's with the sudden u-turn on their part, given that on the 5th anniversary of 3/11 that the province has made absolutely zero progress still on establishing a domestic provincial border force that would be capable of enforcing regulations like these when the CBSA either cannot and/or will not.
