re:the first iteration of Bill C-21... that eventually 'died' on the Order Paper given dissolution of Parliament in lieu of the election call:
hey now, Bill C-21 introduced just days ago: offers you gunners a bit of a reprieve should you choose not to leverage the buyback - win, win, hey!


2nd iteration of Bill C-21: key aspects of the bill in regards gun safety/control:

=> capping the market for handguns
=> through a planned bill C-21 amendment, an intent aiming to ban an even larger number of assault-style weapons than the 1500 originally identified
=> harsher criminal penalties for trafficking and smuggling guns
=> a "red flag" gun control law
=> stripping firearm licenses from people involved with domestic violence
=> notice that the mandatory buyback program for identified & banned assault-style weapons is progressing with further details waiting for consultations with industry on compensation - suggested available later this summer

Quote from: Coalition for Gun Control, a group founded in the wake of the 1989 École Polytechnique massacre in Montreal
This proposed law will strengthen screening processes for gun licences with a particular focus on risk factors associated with domestic violence, but also suicide and hate crimes.

The game-changer is the proposed national ban on the sale and importation of handguns which will stem the flow of these guns. Legal handguns are a significant source of handguns used in crime and are the guns most often used in mass shootings. Canadians want them banned.
