Global is reporting that "The gun buyback program has seen a shortfall since its implementation in 2020, following the Nova Scotia mass-shooting that spurred the banning of over 2500 different firearms. As Touria Izri reports, legal gun owners say they’re being unfairly targeted."
OK hold the door. First of all, the Nova Scotia mass shooting was orchestrated. Gabe Wortman and his fake common law spouse were both police agents. None of the firearms used were illegally obtained. He got them from the RCMP when he was in an undercover operation with the New Brunswick RCMP involving illegal firearms smuggled in from Maine, USA.
Justin Trudeau used that orchestrated event to justify a gun grab from lawful owners. When he submitted a last minute amendment to the bill banning everything under the sun, rural NDP and Liberal MPs said that went too far. In rural communities they have wildlife predators to deal with. The Assembly of First Nation Chiefs said hunting is a treaty right. You can't ban hunting.
Knowing that without the support of the NDP and his own rural MP's Justin Trudeau withdrew the amendment and the bill passed. Then a year later he resubmitted another almost identical list and slipped it through without a vote as an order in counsel. If it was voted on it wouldn't have passed.
Confiscating lawfully obtained property is a very dangerous precedent. It's not something we want to be involved with. Nevertheless these dramatic statistics are very deceiving. Colion Noir also spoke about this. The headline claims 98 % of legal gun owners said no to the government;s buy back program. That statistic is simply not true.
I am a legal firearms owner. I received the RCMP notice of the buyback program and I did not participate in it. Why is that? Because I don't have anything on that list. They are assuming everyone that owns legal firearms, also own firearms that are on the ban list which is simply not true.
Surprisingly many police officers just own their service pistol. They are all legal firearms owners. They don't all own items on the new ban list that was never voted on. That dramatic headline claims all police officers own firearms on the ban list which is not true.
There are two items on the over reaching ban that was never voted on that I wanted to buy but never did. So to say I have those items but never turned them in is simply not true. I'm certainly not going to get into a firefight with the police. That is absolutely ridiculous. If the police come to my home looking for items on the ban list, where are they going to look? My gun safe?
If I did have items on the ban list that was never voted on, which I don't, I wouldn't put them in the safe with all my legal firearms. I'd hide them somewhere else. Probably not even on my property. Somewhere not on the police's radar. So searching my home for them would be a complete waste of time.
Having said that there are still items you can legally own that aren't on the ban list. He that hath an ear to hear, let him hear.
