Dear @JustinTrudeau In 2020 you prohibited my big game rifle, some small game rifles and my competition rifles. I replaced them, but today you prohibited every last replacement. I no longer have any legal hunting or competition rifles. I have no firearms that are useful as

I’ve already asked for a refund and will at least double it now. If you think that this will cause them to pack up and leave you are mistaken. They aren’t doing it for money. You just lit the gas on fire yourself. #HonkHonk2022 #TruckersForFreedom2020 #selfown

Your "handgun freeze" only affects legal firearms. Our firearms aren't on the street - the transport regulations shown below forbid that. Stop wasting our money playing politics with public safety. Punish the criminal misuse of firearms and leave the rest of us alone.

Gun owners used to feel that the 🇨🇦 government was acting in good faith. Over the last 5 years we know - without a doubt - that they’re just doing it for optics. We know that they’re doing it for political means. They don’t give a shit about public safety. They just want a

Less. Cost businesses thousands of dollars to save us less than $5? Waste of everybody's time.

They want them all. These are just the first batch - the semi-auto mag fed centerfire rifles. After these they’ll move to ban more semi auto shotguns. And then eventually they’ll go for the “sniper rifles”. This has been way too far since 2020. I think they’ve overstepped

That's not what the law says Pam. Maybe stop meddling in things you don't understand? If you did that - we'd have no reason to ratio your every post. But since you've decided to steal our property and make hundreds of thousands of us criminals for political gain - here we are.

Amnesty until October. New government in October. They aren't able to steal this from us unless we help them. Fuck 'em.

You say that like it’s a bad thing. The last 10 years have been a slow motion train wreck. The party has to pay dearly for the unserious and vacuous entity it has become - or else nothing will be learned. Looking forward to cheering from the sidelines.

You’re a moron. We don’t have monthly school shootings in 🇨🇦. We have very few mass killings up here AND these firearms aren’t often used in those crimes.

Trudeau's "expert" advisory group on online safety includes Bernie Farber, the guy who tweeted out an antisemitic flyer from Miami Beach and claimed the photo had been taken by his "friend" at a freedom convoy event in Ottawa thepostmillennial.com/trudeau-libera…

20% likely isn’t enough. It’s grown in the last 5 years by like 40% It needs to be downsized and many functions of the government need to be removed and/or privatized. It’s too powerful. It’s too sclerotic. It doesn’t actually do anything well. 🔥
