"In 1995, the Canadian government passed Bill C-68, also known as the Firearms Act, a strict gun-control law which came into effect in stages. This web page describes the effect of this law, as of May 2005, for Americans who travel to Canada (or through Canada to Alaska) with firearms."

"The Liberals are not the only political party in Canada that wants to interfere in US domestic gun law. On June 4, 2004, Jack Layton, the leader of Canada's far-Left New Democratic Party, made the following remarkable statement at a political gathering in Winnipeg:

"We're proposing going across the border to the US and actively engaging in lobbying to have gun-control laws in the US strengthened."

"As a side note, both Al Gore and John Kerry have spoken highly of C-68. Gore went so far as to visit Canada during the 2000 campaign to study C-68 in order to propose and implement a similar system in the US. Thank your lucky stars that Bush won."

Canada's Gun Laws

Canada has proven the old axiom "When guns are outlawed, only outlaws will have guns."

Don't be so hard on poor Canada. When there are no facts that support your position, you have to make up numbers. I'm sure the study was fake but accurate. In fact, I have it on good authority that there is a document sitting in an inbound fax tray at a Kinko's in Texas that proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that every single problem in Canada is caused by American conservatives.
