“While participation is voluntary, abiding by the law is not.”
They were law abiding when the guns were purchased. What makes them now criminals is communist style laws that were declared without ever being voted upon by elected representatives. I own sporting guns, but none of the type being made illegal, but this is outrageous. By an order in council they can convert a legal citizen into a criminal? Yes, we Albertans must separate ourselves from this lunacy. Free Alberta!!!
No guaranteed compensation = An illegitimate foundation-absent confiscation = No compliance.
Our guns are "not on the street", and never have been, nor are they " weapons". Their deceptive, alarmist language is an appalling, irresponsible, shameful illustration of glaring incompetence.
Our guns were not complicit in any crime nor in the École Polytechnique incident.
So the truth is, "we" are now "victims" of their selfish, blind activism that is wilfully now targeting innocent civilians.
It's not enough that they will not guarantee compensation, nor any assurance of immediacy of compensation upon compliance, nor any true market-value compensation,....... but they also now have the arrogance to suggest they want to boldly tell you in what direction you 'cannot' spend those uncertain, unguaranteed compensation funds. .e.g. because in the future they might add any other number of firearms quietly to the list incl. SKS. (Profound un-exaggerated sense of authority addiction & entitlement ...WOW)
Thus all their noble empty-virtue speeches, their pearl-clutching alarmist activist MP's in fear of their own electorate, and their glaring duplicity in messaging a "public safety" narrative while courting a parallel complicity in CCP infiltration, organized crime deterrent incompetency, and degradation of our once great nation for personal investment performance & family business gains....are not lost on us...nor welcome in this nation.
Their legacy as the most tyrannical, controlling, failed experiment in Neo-Authoritarianism will long outlive all of them. Shame on them...every one of them.
If shop-owners complain, Carney's Gestapo (the CRA) will be visited on them as it is being visited on the entire, long-suffering population of Canada. Carney's form of Corporate Communism is not good to small entrepreneurs - only to large state-affiliated 'corporations'... like Brookfield.
I feel like I went to sleep and woke up in an English-speaking (mostly) Bolshevik USSR, and not in its better years.
More so what people actually know. I think the lieberals do not know how to think themselves and only serve as puppets for the who, un, and all the other communist entities.
There was a reason that almost 300 years ago now the folks who founded one of the greatest countries in the world (perhaps again but who knows) embedded in their Constitution (something foreign to Canada and Canadians, that being an actual Constitution that means something as they have this thing called "A Charter or Rights and Freedoms" applied selectively by their Government and generally, not always, not applied on behalf of Canadians by their Judiciary. Exceptions, as recently against weird sock jerk do apply.)
In any case... This is your incompetent, corrupt and control obsessed Liberal Government.
One that is likely (as it should be I suppose) afraid of its own law abiding citizens.
There is a reason they want to take your guns and make you criminals if you do not give up your means of defending yourself from criminals and others (Liberals perhaps consider themselves "the others").
That is because they themselves are the criminals and don't want you to ever be able to defend yourself should that day happen and it just might sooner than later.

If I had a gun, I would NOT COMPLY. Government has no business seizing MY ASSET THAT I PAID FOR & USE LEGALLY!! This is B.S. & there is a reason they're going after us but so far, Canadians are too apathetic to understand what is going on. Get yourself a Byrna for protection. So far, they're legal in Canada & are not a lethal weapon but are good for self-protection. I'm ordering one for myself & for my spouse.
I used to carry a baseball bat in my car on the off chance I might someday be confronted by a physical threat. A friend of mine who was in law enforcement told me to make sure I carried a baseball and glove with the bat otherwise I could be charged with carrying a concealed weapon. So that's what I did. Now that I'm nearly 70 I just carry a stout, wooden cattle cane.
We learned last week from the CCP that Canada no longer has a Liberal/NDP/Block socialist/communist/separatist coalition government, we now have a Liberal/NDP/Block communist/communist/separatist coalition government. The coalition government has control of the courts, judges, police, media, government bureaucracies as any authoritarian government has done during the history of the world. The one thing that differentiates Canada from other authoritarian governments is the citizens are still armed. Do not give up your guns in fact buy more.
And how would somebody even know about the gun grab unless they are glued to the cbc news or somebody tells them ??? If I didn't see it here i would not even know about it ... Apparently they have made all the driving laws much stricter.... I guess we just find out about what's legal or not by watching the CBC , like the mask thing ... if you don't watch the TV or the social media you wouldn't even know about any of this stuff ... One day you just walk outside and everybody is staring at you because you're wearing brown shoes or something .... You might not even know until you are carted off to prison
Anyone in Canada with more than two functioning brain cells - including the crooks who are shoving this down our throats - understands that the program will accomplish nothing. As clearly demonstrated by their pilot projects.
Yet they persist, full speed ahead with this illogical scheme and its reported $1.2+ billion price tag - thank you Canadian Taxpayers.
There is only one, logical inference that can be made from this idiocy. The government does not care whether it works or not. What they do care about is 1.2 billion dollars.
Where does this money go now? It's not buying guns. Or what's more pertinent, where has it gone and into whose pockets?
It would not surprise me to discover that the bulk of this money will end up in Quebec pockets.
This entire scheme is beginning to take on the odour of yet another taxpayer-funded pork barrel.
90% non-compliance coming. We will wait out this goverment for the next one. Nathalie Provost is a liar along with Anandasangaree. Provost claims numerous RCMP have shot with the SKS, bs. Anandasangaree clains 2000 guns stolen fron legal gun owners,bs. Provost claims that violent crime committed with guns are sportsmen not criminals. Will put money on it that this "amnesty" will be extended again in October.
Well, the first mistake that gun owners made was to register their firearms. So the feds are coming after "registered" gun owners, but not the criminal gun owners who didn't. Firearms are the "tools of the trade" for the average criminal. The second mistake was complying with the authoritarian government's rules. As sovereign individuals, we did not consent to being under any authority, and it's an individual's choice to own a firearm or any other item that may be prohibited or restricted. Besides, governments big and small are service corporations masquerading as elected bodies. No government corporation has the right to impose its will upon a sovereign individual any more than if Tim Horton's hired enforcers to confiscate other brand-named coffee from people who preferred not to buy the Tim Horton's brand.

Are you listening Liberal, NDP, Green, Bloq supporters? This HAS ALL THE MARKINGS OF DICTATORSHIP, AND NO FREEDOMS, PERIOD. PLEASE IF YOU EVEN KNOW WHY, TELL US ALL WHY YOU VOTED FOR CARNEY AND TEAM??? AM TRULY PUZZLED. JUST HOW IS CANADA BETTER OF??
Good Canadian citizens with guns, stop bad People and bad Governments that want to take our guns.
The illegal emergency act is the reason citizens need a real second amendment.

Creating bad laws and applying them retroactively is a violation of both law and reason.

Did the gun stores get their true compensation for all their confiscated guns? Or are they still waiting payment?

Federal Government has no idea who has guns unless you report it to them.
Provinces have stated they will not enforce the illegal seizures.
Liberals are scared stiff of insurrections post Communist China and Quatar deals.
I wonder if they even notice what people think
OH...
They notice.
They care not.
This is a process of making criminals out of those how obey the law and letting the criminals off while talking to talk but never walking the walk.
Yes that's right ... inverting truth and morality ... Satanism
Maybe Carney should be living at 666 Sussex Dr.

My guns are not for sale!.
If every lawful gunowner would take that stand then there is nothing this anti Canadian Federal crime cartel can do.
from the amount they got in, looks like many are not declaring them or maybe there are not as many out there as they make out

It’s illegal to carry *anything * for the purpose of self-defense in Canada, including non-lethal weapons.
True.......but if I need self-defense, that won't stop me. I will NOT comply.

There are plenty of examples of law enforcement firearms being stolen as well. I guess aren't responsible either.

An armed citizenry is a check against outright tyranny!
Given the socialist policies of our current Authoritarian Liberal Government, makes you wonder.

I thought they got rid of the gun registry more than 10 years ago? So did they? How do they know where these guns are if it has gone?
Maybe Harper lied.
