As leftists in the United States continue their effort to blame guns for violence around the nation, woke Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has actually now proposed prohibiting handguns completely. In a speech on May 30th, Trudeau revealed his federal government was proposing legislation to enforce a “national freeze” on pistols in Canada.
“What this means is that it will no longer be possible to buy, sell, transfer or import handguns anywhere in Canada,” Trudeau said.
“In other words, we’re capping the market for handguns.”
As Trudeau made his statement, his army of masked leftist fans praised the totalitarian, additional contributing to the dystopian scene.

Trudeau stated the legislation likewise includes an arrangement prohibiting any “long gun magazine” that can hold more than five rounds. Much like for pistols, the sale and transfer of high-capacity publications would be forbidden if the legislation were to pass.
The madness does not stop there. According to Reuters, some toy weapons such as airsoft and pellet rifles would likewise be prohibited under the brand-new legislation.
“Because they look the same as real firearms, police need to treat them as if they are real,” Justice Minister David Lametti said. “This has led to tragic consequences.”
Recently, authorities in Toronto shot and eliminated a male who seemed bring a weapon– later on determined as a BB weapon– near a grade school, CTV News reported.
The Special Investigations Unit in Canada stated 2 officers faced the man and after that fired on him, and an examination has actually been opened into the event.
“Whether the man was holding [the BB gun] or not, I’m not entirely certain at this point,” Toronto police watchdog spokesperson Kristy Denette said. “But that will be something that the SIU investigators will be looking at.”
To be reasonable, bringing any sort of weapon near a grade school is not recommended, particularly in the wake of the current shooting in Uvalde, Texas.
At the same time, toy weapons have unique distinctions from genuine guns, and qualified policemen must have the ability to recognize them.
The bottom line is that each of the problems dealt with in this proposed legislation is nuanced, and there are numerous elements to be thought about. Instead of putting in the time to do this, Trudeau would rather prohibit anything he does not like, which is an action similar to a totalitarian.
A few of the arrangements in the proposed legislation might really work in avoiding weapon violence.
Canadian Police Association President Tom Stamatakis applauded brand-new “red flag” arrangements that would prevent individuals who have actually engaged in domestic violence or stalking from holding a guns license, Reuters reported.
The positives are basically cleaned out by the totalitarian arrangements in the legislation.
Canadian Coalition for Firearm Rights head Rod Giltaca called the pistol restriction “absurd” and said police are failing to utilize arrangements currently in place to help prevent weapon violence.
As usual, the left obviously has no interest in working to discover reasonable ways to address this issue. Rather, they have actually drawn on their reliable technique of trying to prohibit whatever upsets them.
