sure i can see banning it if the person has a history of criminal incidents, but if it's a normal person who has gone through training we should allow more weapons.

 @9G2J666from Ontario  agreed…2yrs2Y

I think a train indivual should have gun control but somone history with violence with weapons really shouldnt

 @9FY5RRDfrom Ontario  agreed…2yrs2Y

Agree. Gun restrictions should be focused on background checks and making sure you give a permit to a qualified candidate

 @9G32NHFfrom Alberta  disagreed…2yrs2Y

If you see a person walking down the street with a gun and you don't know if that person has gone through the proper training and you would still feel unsafe

 @9FXW6H7Greenfrom Ontario  disagreed…2yrs2Y

A large amount of weapons on the street are stolen or sold on the black market. No amount of training will prevent this from occurring

 @9FGQ95GConservativefrom Alberta  agreed…2yrs2Y

So many school shootings, and any shootings. Lives are being lost and threatened almost everyday because of gun violence.

 @9FTWLZJfrom Alberta  disagreed…2yrs2Y

My family loves to hunt for recreational purposes, and in very remote areas of Canada, a gun can be necessary for self defence.

 @9FVFZJTConservativefrom Alberta  disagreed…2yrs2Y

more crimanals get there guns from smuggled guns from the states than gun stores and we should have the right to bear arms.

 @B47FML7from Alberta  disagreed…3wks3W

We already have strict gun control measures that prevent the wrong people from purchasing guns legally. People who commit crimes with guns today wouldn't follow more strict gun control laws tomorrow, so don't punish law binding citizens for criminals obtaining guns illegally.

 @B3SSGQYPeople’s from Alberta  disagreed…1mo1MO

Increasing Gun Control, while it may help for reducing crime, it would seriously impact rural people who run buisnesses that rely on guns.

 @B3H2PHQfrom Alberta  agreed…2mos2MO

So many school shootings, and any shootings. Lives are being lost and threatened almost everyday because of gun violence.

 @B3G3N3Gfrom Alberta  agreed…2mos2MO

why would you want us to be able to access guns why cha ge how safe and reliable and trustworthy we are to eachother and the govermeant

 @B3D7P6FConservative from Alberta  disagreed…2mos2MO

With the current bill against gun control it is targeting the farmers, hunters and the legal buyers of these firearms. We should be putting more spending towards border security and policing in Canada to stop the overflow of illegal weapons coming into Canada.

 @B247BW8from Alberta  agreed…4mos4MO

Gun control can positively effect the amount of gun related deaths that happen per year (Accidental or intentional) further bringing them down in comparison to the US.

 @9SS5YBNfrom Alberta  disagreed…8mos8MO

Guns dont commit the crimes, its the person who has the gun. Before gun control was raised in Canada, there was not an issue with violent crime. Matter of fact, crime has increased since the ban on guns. This could be due to the fact that there is a larger population that needs to commit crime to survive after the failures of the Liberal government.

 @9M22DWCConservativefrom Alberta  disagreed…12mos12MO

The amount of gun violence due to purchasing guns properly in Canada is very low. The reason for most gun violence is through illegal purchasing of guns, more should be done about the illegal people instead of the people who want to buy a gun to hunt or keep theyre home safe.

 @9LXTXBNfrom Alberta  disagreed…12mos12MO

People who want to get guns to hurt people will find a way to get guns regardless of government regulation

 @9LX8Q6Dfrom Alberta  disagreed…12mos12MO

Self carry for anyone without any criminal record should be allowed safety to all our citizens and children

 @9LVCFCFfrom Alberta  disagreed…12mos12MO

If I really wanted a gun for nefarious purposes I would find a way to get a gun. Super strict regulations only affect law abiding citizens.

 @9GVK6XLfrom Alberta  agreed…1yr1Y

It could help our country in being safer and we won't have to worry about if children will be safe when going to school.

 @9GSPHPSfrom Alberta  disagreed…1yr1Y

Criminals will always find a way to get their hands on guns by making them, doing illegal purchases or just straight up making a gun themselves.

 @9LQBT4Yfrom Alberta  disagreed…12mos12MO

gun control only affects law-abiding citizens and efforts should be focused on laws that would target criminals

 @9H3HC84Liberalfrom Alberta  agreed…1yr1Y

Children in US get killed while they are attending school because personal hatred is influenced on individual’s usage of gun.

 @9FMQHB3from Alberta  disagreed…2yrs2Y

There should be no laws, guns were not mainly made to shoot someone, they were made to hunt, and shoot targets and were not mainly used for shooting someone.

 @9FGC62BConservativefrom Alberta  disagreed…2yrs2Y

Guns and like weapons are not dangerous unless they fall into the wrong hands, felony convicted criminals should not have the right to own or possess a firearm of any sort. The banning of "AR" rifles is the most retarded thing Justin has ever done. Armalite Rifle Company are NOT " assault rifles, automatic rifles", or anything else.

 @9GWL57Sfrom Alberta  disagreed…1yr1Y

Gun control exists only to disarm law-abiding citizens. Criminals and tyrants will always have guns regardless of the laws.

 @9FTCZB9from Alberta  disagreed…2yrs2Y

since people like to go hunting and if there are no guns I have they banned all them we can't hunt with guns we have to use bows that people are not all skilled with

 @B4PQQKNPeople’sfrom Alberta  disagreed…3 days3D

The Toronto Police Department states that 95% of guns used in crimes in Toronto are handguns illegally smuggled across the border. Which means gun control measures only hurt legal gun owners. They're not the ones actually committing the crimes. Repeal every gun law since 2019.
