GUNTER: Liberals and RCMP have been quietly adding to the gun ban list – Toronto Sun
About a month ago I wrote that the federal Liberals massive gun ban could include hundreds of thousands of shotguns (perhaps as many as two million) that are popular with hunters, not just the assault rifles the government claimed.
No, no, no the government scoffed. We would never take away bird guns.
The prediction that their seizure plans included shotguns (and not just military-style firearms) wasnt just my guess.
I dont know much about the mechanics of guns. Ive never owned a gun. Dont expect I ever will.
My interest in firearms is purely political: I dont trust any government that doesnt trust my law-abiding neighbours to own guns.
But I know lots of people who know plenty about guns. And many of them said the way the Liberals had written their May 1 confiscation order focusing on the size of a guns muzzle, rather than muzzle velocity or projectile type meant hundreds of thousands of shotguns could be scooped up by police along with the scary-looking guns the Liberals claimed to be after.
Now it has been discovered that since May 1, the Liberals and RCMP have indeed been adding lots of shotguns to the ban.
Worse yet, they have not been telling gun owners or the public. Presumably some hunters are going to find out the hard way that guns they thought were legal, arent any more.
This fall, they will go out to their favourite duck blind and end up getting arrested for possession of a prohibited weapon.
Not only was the ban proclaimed by order-in-council (a form of government decree), rather than after a debate and vote in Parliament, ever since the list of prohibited firearms has been rapidly expanded in smokescreen!
If you didnt know better, youd wonder whether the Liberals realize their firearms dictate isnt as popular as they claim, so theyre sneaking around cramming as much in as they can under the cloak of the pandemic.
Firearms organizations claim over 300 additional models have been prohibited since May 1, but you have to be very alert to know which ones.
The official list of newly banned guns is part of the FRT (Firearms Reference Table). But the original list of 1,500 models was lumped in with guns banned before May 1. And now the addition banned models are lumped in with the first 1,500, plus the older banned models.
Hmm, you might think the government was being deliberately underhanded.
Naw!
To make matters even worse, the firearms outlawed after the May 1 ban have been made illegal retroactive to May 1.
So they are already illegal and you may own one without even knowing its banned.
Which brings me back to my prediction that you might go out to shoot geese this fall and come back in a paddy wagon.
As a crime-reduction strategy, the Trudeau governments gun ban will, of course, be utterly useless. It bans legal guns owned by law-abiding Canadians, when most crime guns are brought to the country illegally and wielded by drug dealers and gang members.
But while the ban will achieve nothing beneficial, it will increase the mistrust gun owners have for the police, especially the Mounties.
Gun owners are the kind of people who used to be the most supportive of the police. Their sons were the young people most likely to want to go into the police. But no longer.
If the police aid the Liberals in their deviousness, gun owners will lose faith in the impartiality of cops.
The bans arbitrary, deceitful, intrusive assault on law-abiding Canadians may play well with ignorant enlightened Liberal voters in downtown Toronto and Montreal, but it will undermine the rule of law elsewhere.
