Can you provide an example?

PolySeSouvient's letter, dated last Friday, is copied to others, including Provost, current Public Safety Minister David McGuinty and Rachel Bendayan, a former associate public safety minister.

The group says the new public safety minister should be directed to:

— build an incentive package in the buyback program to encourage early compliance;

— conduct meaningful consultations with stakeholders before draft bills, regulations, directives and public education campaigns are made public;

— immediately launch an investigation into the classification of the SKS, a rifle that has been used in mass and police shootings, to find a solution that protects public safety and respects Indigenous rights to hunt;

— eliminate all loopholes, exemptions and exceptions related to magazine capacity.

We should hastily implement every recommendation.

A prominent gun control group is urging Prime Minister Mark Carney to swiftly implement Liberal election promises on firearms and avoid the foot-dragging that left many pledges under the previous government unfulfilled.

PolySeSouvient includes students and graduates of Montreal's École Polytechnique, where a gunman killed 14 women in 1989.

Safety regulations does not equate to "government tyranny"

That's the same argument made against seat belts, masks and vaccines.

Really pushing the disinformation and gaslighting here. Pearl clutching about your weapons designed to kill others under the guise of “hobbies”

Illegal guns are sold from legal owners to criminals. So no they’re not “well intentioned individuals”

There was also an incident where a father used his legal gun to kill his wife, father in law then himself. Wouldn’t have happened if he wasn’t allowed access to guns in the first place.

“78.3% of gun-related domestic homicides in Canada were committed with firearms in the legal possession of licensed owners.”
