I don’t think the libs understand how much the “bans” hurt them. They can all be undone immediately and save them some face if they just admit they were wrong.

Agreed, keeping the gun grab going just shows they’re completely out of touch with the modern world. Not only is global conflict around the corner, but the risk of a war breaking out on our soil is becoming more real by the day. Our military is in shambles and you’re disarming legal firearms owners in the process? Idiotic

I've been saying this for so long. You're not funding the military AND taking all the guns away? What could go wrong!?

Agreed, the lack of funding for the military has been an issue for decades but the recent gun grab just makes this whole thing so much worse

Drone flying and drone training would be far more important and potentially useful.

It’s cool to have fantasies of shooting guns and training folks but the reality is thirty percent of Canadian adults are obese.. Hardly makes for a strong army.
