Alistair MacGregor, Member of Pariament for Cowichan-Malahat-Langford, on #BillC21 and how the Liberal government of #JustinTrudeau got us into this mess.

Well worth watching. I would argue though that licensed Canadian firearms owners aren't just upset at C21 because of how it was rolled out: they are upset because it attacks them and their property, when neither are a problem in Canada. Secure the border and target smuggled firearms instead.

Where is/Is there a possible separation between a citizen and their public profile?

#Montreal #Canadiens goaltender #CareyPrice took to Instagram to voice his opposition to #BillC21, the federal government’s new firearms bill. At issue is an amendment to Bill C-21 introduced last month that proposed expanding the definition of a prohibited assault-style #firearm.

The Canadian government is expanding a rifle ban to include semi-automatic rifles that can hold more than 5 rounds mags. What civilian use cases in Canada would require a semi-automatic rifle capable of holding more than 5 rounds? Am I missing something?
