The Liberal government is moving ahead with efforts to keep assault-style firearms out of the hands of Canadians, Public Safety Minister Dominic LeBlanc said Monday.

    I just wish that the general public and the government were educated on existing firearms laws and regulations in Canada. Assault weapons and high capacity magazines have been illegal here for a very long time. I don’t like politicians trying to score points on issues that aren’t actually issues, the public just isn’t informed about them.

      I’m not too sure how banning “scary looking” guns helps anything, when people will still buy the exact same guns that just, don’t look scary? They can still shoot the same.

        That and the fact it doesn’t do anything to stop criminals from killing anyone, or take their guns away. This is just a political stunt that wont do anything but cost the country money.
