Allowing an american hedge fund to take over most Canadian newspapers was a huge mistake.

What can be done after the sale? ban them?

Thatโ€™s not too far fetched for our liberal government, Bill C21 and their use of Order In Councils to ban firearms that have been available for sale in this country since the 70โ€™s.

All because someone who obtained firearms illegally, killed some cops in Nova Scotia and paraded around town dressed as one of the officerโ€™s on a mass-killing spree, folks who are licensed firearms owners have to suffer the consequence of this numbskulls actions, makes complete sense.

The culture around guns in Canada has been infected by American gun culture. Used to be guns were for hunting or maybe some hobby at a shooting range.

If your identity revolves around being a gun owner, not a hunter or some other hobby that uses guns, then you're in the group of people that is the the reason why guns need to be banned. The point of that culture isn't to consider a gun a tool that's part of a hobby, but a way to have power over others. People in that mindset are just one bad day away from using those guns to harm people.
