Without firearms, there's nothing to stop Moose from seizing control of the Great White North.
Buyback program for banned firearms to begin in Nova Scotia next monthOttawa to restart program for businesses later this fallPeter Zimonjic · CBC News · Posted: Sep 23, 2025 1:37 PM EDT | Last Updated: September 23The Liberal government will begin its long-awaited gun buyback program for individuals next month with a pilot project based in Cape Breton, N.S.Public Safety Minister Gary Anandasangaree announced the pilot program in Ottawa on Tuesday, saying the buyback is voluntary and that "no one is having their weapon confiscated.""We want to be sure everything is working properly before we open the program nationwide later in the fall," Anandasangaree said.Government officials said earlier Tuesday in a technical briefing that the only voluntary part of the program is having the choice to turn a firearm in or have it rendered inoperable. ...The announcement fulfils an election promise made by Prime Minister Mark Carney to reinvigorate the assault-style firearm buyback program that was launched in 2020 — shortly after the mass shooting in Portapique, N.S., which left 22 people dead.Since 2020, the Liberal government has banned 2,500 "assault-style" types of firearms with the promise to buy them back.The ban came with a two-year amnesty that allowed owners of guns like the AR-15 to be turned in until April 30, 2022. ...
This is from Canada's official government news organization:"Assault-style" firearms are so much more lethal than those with a more traditional appearance, you know.
I think that despite all previous grievances with Ottawa, this sort of thing will put wheels under Wexit. If the East insists, the West will leave Canada while they still can.
