Riiight! You mean like the Australians and British have rejected those attempts?
Canada, from my understanding has already outlawed a majority of weapons useful for self-defense.
HCI and the like, when they first became organized, did advocate total disarmament, they learned from their mistakes and so changed their tactics, but it is foolish to believe that they have changed their desires. There is no such thing as intelligent or reasonable controls on gun ownership where the LAW ABIDING American citizen is concerned.

The only thing you can't really own in Canada anymore is assault weapons. Hand guns, rifles and shotguns are of course still legal. Based on the amount of money wasted by our government on a useless piece of legislation they would be very hard pressed to get authorization to set up any more programs with the word "gun" in them. Everyone I have talked to is absolutely sick over the last fiasco. Especially considering what's happening in Toronto now.....proof that gun control doesn't stop criminals.
I can't even imagine what it would cost the US if they tried a similar scheme on a population that is 10 times the size of ours. BILLIONS.
