It's outright revolting watching the Trudeau Liberals piggybacking on tragedies to forward their agenda to disarm all Canadians..Let there be no doubt, the illegalization of all firearms is the intent of the Liberal government and it has been so for a long time..The Liberals under Jean Chretien started the process with their long gun registry in the 1990s. Though they always denied it, the intent of the registry was to identify every firearm in Canada with the intention of illegalizing and seizing them in the future. They can’t take them if they don’t know who has them..The inept bureaucracy of the federal government ultimately led to the demise of the registry..While the Liberals pushed the registry, they claimed it would be simple to administer and the costs would be in the millions. After more than a decade of effort, an estimated 60% of firearms were registered and the cost of the registry had ballooned to over $2 billion dollars. The registry was rife with errors and the accuracy of the records couldn’t be trusted..It was easy for Prime Minister Stephen Harper to make his case when he put the long gun registry out of our misery in 2012..Unfortunately, remnants of the registry remained as RCMP officers took advantage of the disastrous floods in Alberta in 2013 to search and seize firearms from homes abandoned due to a mandatory evacuation order. Or are we to believe the officers had a sixth sense telling them which homes had firearms in them?.The Liberals returned to power and are as determined as ever to steal the property of law-abiding firearm owners. They have learned from their failed registry effort, so have now adopted a tactic of incremental gun bans with the timing based on expanding bans shortly after mass shootings hit the news..After the horrific mass shooting in Nova Scotia in 2020, the Liberal government used an order in council to ban 1,500 types of firearms they determined to be “assault style” weapons. Their definition of what was “assault style” was completely arbitrary, but they didn’t care. The intent was to illegalize as many firearms as possible in one fell swoop. Even some forms of pellet guns had been included..The Liberals then bided their time and waited for another mass shooting. Sadly, it was only a matter of time before one happened. In Uvalde Texas, 21 people were slaughtered in a school by a psychopath. While the world was rightly aghast and mourning, the Liberals took advantage of the mood to impose a sudden ban on the transfer of all legally owned handguns and all new sales. Never mind that handguns had no part in Uvalde or that legally owned ones aren’t a problem in Canada. The Liberal opportunists knew when to best strike..Now, after a shooting in an LGBTQ nightclub in Colorado, the Liberals have taken advantage of the incident to suddenly propose banning all semi-automatic rifles with detachable magazines. Again, these kind of firearms had nothing to do with the recent crime and are not problematic in Canada. Most of them are used for target shooting or hunting..Millions of firearms are suddenly becoming illegal in Canada. Millions of Canadians own them who have never committed nor will they ever commit crimes with them. Many of those Canadians will become instant criminals, however, if they don’t comply..This time the government has bitten off more than it can chew..Firearm owners had enough and hundreds of thousands — if not millions — of them will not be handing over their long guns to the government. The government doesn’t know where most of the firearms are and owners won’t be cooperating. In Alberta and Saskatchewan, provincial governments have indicated they won't be cooperating with the federal government on initiatives that don't serve their citizens well. .How many harmless people are going to find themselves charged with serious offenses because they possess firearms that were banned? How much time will this take up in the justice system?.How much police time will be dedicated to tracking down and trying to figure out where these millions of long guns are?.Our law enforcement and justice resources are being diverted toward harassing law abiding citizens while gangland shootings with smuggled firearms continue to rise..Its an absurd obsession, but the Liberals won’t give up..It’s time to refuse to comply. .Firearm owners need to challenge these laws, and wait it out. As with the long gun registry, the law will fail over time..Don't let them get their hands on your property.
