Canada moved to make the sale of handguns illegal under a sweeping new bill introduced in Ottawa Monday in the wake of the Uvalde, Texas school shooting.
Flanked by government officials and advocates, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced a “national freeze” on firearms in the country as he referenced increasing homicides in Canada and alluded to recent mass shootings south of the border.
“It will no longer be possible to buy, sell, transfer or import handguns anywhere in Canada. In other words, we’re capping the market for handguns,” Trudeau said.
“People should be free to go to the supermarket, their school or their place of worship without fear.”

Will Canada roll over like Australians did? Sadly, I suspect they will.
Uvalde shooter didn’t use a handgun.
It sounds like dumbass Canadian politicians are doing more drugs than their American counterparts. What does a handgun have to do with Uvalde?
people should be free to live under subjective rule.
oh canada, it has been good to know ya.
Note to Canada: when you have a leader who declares himself dictator over a protest where nobody is in danger of anything, you might not want to let that guy take all the guns. He’s shown who he is and what he wants.
Here in the US, we are toying the idea of rewarding authoritarian politicians that are intentionally running a corrupt and incompetent government by allowing them to take away, not only our 2nd Amendment rights, but 1st Amendment rights as well. I cannot conjure up a more illogical, irrational and idiotic thing to do.

By the time Communists took over China, the civilian population had already
been disarmed by Nationalist Chinese gun control laws. In 1951 and at the
beginning of the Great Leap Forward in 1957, however, the Communist
government added its own gun control laws, the Act of Feb. 20, 1951 and the
Act of Oct. 22, 1957. These laws denied weapons to “counterrevolutionary
criminals,” or “people who resisted any government program,” and specified
the death penalty for people who “supplied weapons” to such “criminals.”5
The
1957 law banned the manufacture, purchase, repair, or possession of firearms or
ammunition by the public.

...October 1918, Lenin ordered “the
surrender of all firearms, ammunition, and
sabres.”13 These decrees, issued during the
Russian Civil War, were codified in law
during the 1920s. In 1935, Stalin added
new weapons controls of his own: one law
banned carrying a knife, and a gun control
decree extended “all penalties, including
death, down to 12-year-old children...
...The Nazis added to the already restrictive Weimar gun control laws in March 1938.
“Persons under eighteen were forbidden to buy firearms or ammunition; a special
permit was introduced for handguns; ...Nazi officials were exempted from the
firearms permit system; silencers were outlawed; twenty-two caliber cartridges with
hollow points were banned; and firearms which could fold or break down “beyond
the common limits of hunting and sporting activities” became illegal.17 Ominously,
“Jews were barred from businesses involving firearms.”....
Of the government
Absolutely true. Not sure where the Canadien cops are on that though. You would think they now have an even bigger responsibility when people are left defenseless.
Heh, yes them most of all!
Handguns will no longer be LEGALLY sold in Canada.
Do you think that will stop Canadian CRIMINALS from obtaining a handgun?
Only law-abiding white people won’t be able to get guns. It would be racist not to allow others to defend themselves against White Supremacists.
Only crazies hell bent on homicide will now be able to obtain guns since they don’t follow the law anyway.
