So during prohibition, alcoholic beverages were illegal in this country, but there was a demand for it, so there was brisk traffic in said beverages from Canada to the U.S.A.
Today, with registration and confiscation the order of the day in Canada, it is almost illegal to own a firearm there. The demand for firearms is still there, so now we have a brisk business the other way.
An observation, if you were to repeal all the gun laws and registration schemes you have in Canada, the way we repealed prohibition, you will no longer have a problem with smuggled arms entering your country.
Regardless of what you may tell the world, the truth is, your citizens want their guns.
Best Regards

Well, Mister Martin, we share a 5,514 mile border. What do you suggest?

Lets see. John Rice, Condis father, armed himself with a shotgun and participated in neighborhood patrols during the early 60s when the KKK was terrorizing middle class blacks. For some reason, I dont think resolving Canadas gun control problems is going to be a priority for the Secretary of State.

Para Ordnance double-stack (with Hogue grips) P14.45 made in Toronto
I wonder if Canadians can actually buy one of these in Canada?

45Auto asks:
"I wonder if Canadians can actually buy one of these in Canada?" And I wonder why NAFTA seems to require that trucks from Mexico get to freely use highways in the US, but somehow Canada is permitted to enforce laws which reduce the demand for high-quality, US-made firearms.

HeHeHe.....Kanada had better worry about the the western provinces. Those folks are the ones with all the guns and from what I have read, they aren't too fond of registering them......
Social civil war is on the horizon......

That's a good one. I bet there is a very high demand for US made firearms in Canada. I'll bet the legal channels to obtain one are narrow indeed for Canadian citizens. I also wonder if the gun grabbers in Canada want to shut down Para Ordnance; the corollary is why wasn't the firm mentioned in the article? Maybe because the liberal whiners in charge of the Canadian government need to blame someone other than themselves for the problem. And maybe the problem is one that doesn't really exist.

I don't know that American authorities could do anything about this even if they were inclined to. Guns aren't illegal here. What action do the Canucks expect Americans to take? I mean, are we supposed to confiscate guns from our citizens in order to prevent smuggling? It makes no sense at all to suggest that the U.S. can or should do anything about gun crimes in other countries. As for me, I'm going to be armed and I have no intention of going to Canada. There are too many Canadians there to suit me.

The police associations and the chiefs of police associations are telling us that up to 50 per cent of crimes involving firearms, involve firearms that come from the United States Here the Canadians admit that the US is doing every bit as good a job as they are since at least 50% are from Canada and not the US.
