Premi5 Posted May 31, 2022 Report Share Posted May 31, 2022 https://www.axios.com/2022/05/30/justin-trudeau-gun-control-handguns-canada @dallysingh101 @justasking 10 hours ago - World Justin Trudeau introduces strict gun control on handguns in Canada Photo: Mert Alper Dervis/Anadolu Agency via Getty Images Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau wants to freeze the sale, importation and transfer of handguns in Canada, he told reporters today. The big picture: This isn't a full ban, but it will significantly restrict the number of handguns in circulation, CBC reports. "In other words, we're capping the market for handguns," he said at a press conference. "Other than using firearms for sport shooting and hunting, there is no reason anyone in Canada should need guns in their everyday lives." Between the lines: Canada has stricter gun laws than the U.S., and it does not guarantee a constitutional right to bear arms. New rules were proposed in Canada's Parliament today that include, CBC reports: Limits on the size of magazines Harsher criminal penalties for trafficking guns A "red flag" gun control law Stripping firearm licenses from people involved with domestic violence Flashback: Trudeau introduced rules banning the AR-15 and other semi-automatic rifles in 2020, after a mass shooting spree in Nova Scotia. In March of 2022, Canada said it would add another year to an "amnesty" period while officials set up mandatory buyback programs, CBC reports. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dallysingh101 Posted May 31, 2022 Report Share Posted May 31, 2022 I can see this causing serious issues. I hope Jagmeet doesn't jump on the bandwagon. I can understand a ban on weapons like the AR15, but a wider ban will only make certain pro-weapons people even more anti-establishment. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
