The federal government just extended the firearms amnesty — again. Not because the policy is working, but because the Supreme Court of Canada is now questioning whether it was ever legal to begin with.
Here’s what gets buried in these announcements: not one of these firearms was banned through a vote in Parliament. They were prohibited overnight by Order in Council — a Cabinet decree, no debate, no elected vote.
“Assault-style” isn’t a legal definition. It’s a vague label stretched to cover thousands of lawfully owned firearms belonging to licensed, vetted, responsible Canadians. Hunters. Sport shooters. Collectors. They did everything right — and they’re the ones paying the price.
Meanwhile, the illegal handguns driving the vast majority of gun violence in this country remain the real problem — and this policy does nothing to address them.
I support licensing. I support safe storage. I support keeping firearms out of the wrong hands. What I don’t support is policy theatre dressed up as public safety.
The Supreme Court will have its say. Until then — know your rights, and know your MP is paying attention.

Today I introduced legislation to ban floor crossing without voter consent. When MPs switch parties after an election, they override the will of the people and erode trust. My bill restores accountability: if you want to change parties, face your constituents and let them decide.
@IanRunkle I am so disgusted with Canadian Politics right now, politicians are just in this for themselves, it’s just a game and we are the pawns ♟️ ♟️♟️♟️♟️
@nationalpost@NatCitizens You forget the one overwhelming reason for the Liberals would accept an anti abortion, pro trucker antivax, right wing mp, they have no conscience, no morals and will do anything to gain or stay in power. Thats it, it’s not about Canadians, or their needs, just about more Power..
@MarkJCarney@bruceanderson So shes a right wing, conspiracy theorist, anti vaxer, pro trucker convoy mp, everything that Liberals hate….. how does that work….is she going to be your far right consultant…. Liberals have no integrity, ANYTHING to win….
@alandrummond2 She and the CCFR do represent me and most of the firearm owners I know…. If you agree with the government on this you are definitely in the minority of firearm owners…
@MarkJCarney@kinsellawarren Yet another MP, with no conscience, betraying the people who voted for her and supported her, this should not be acceptable, a by election should be automatic if an MP changes parties and abandons her supporters and voters.
@bruceanderson My father always told me “charity starts at home”, first we need to take care of the starving and suffering in Canada, and then, if there is money left over, we can send aid to other countries, and Canada should not be borrowing money to send aid anywhere…
@Safety_Canada What an absolute failure and waste of money this is…. Your numbers for the first week were pretty bad, and now have fallen off a cliff….
@globalnews The laws already exist, they just need to enforce them, it was very clear that there was a severe mental health issue in this case, enough that they confiscated the firearms, but then chose to return them….the RCMP and courts hold some blame in this case
@RealNicoLagan Bullshit, no info has been released so far as to models of firearms, you just pulled this out of your ass and post it like it was fact, you are a shit disturber, just shit posting for clicks…
You know a government policy is tanking when even the CBC is making fun of it…..

@Polysesouvient Poly is panic posting…..things are not going well with the gun grab…Only a matter of time before Carney admits it’s a bust…. Police won’t support it, provinces want nothing to do with it, it was never about public safety. It was always about appeasing activist groups and votes
