OSHAWA, ON – Today, rumours that Justin Trudeau’s Liberal government will ban semi-automatic rifles and shotguns are confirmed.


An amendment to Bill C-21, currently before a House of Commons committee, was tabled today that will ban all semi-automatic rifles and shotguns capable of accepting an external magazine.


That Bill C-21, in Clause 1, be amended by adding after line 15 on page 1 the following:



(g) a firearm that is a rifle or shotgun, that is capable of discharging centre-fire ammunition in a semi-automatic manner and that is designed to accept a detachable cartridge magazine with a capacity greater than five cartridges of the type for which the firearm was originally designed


This amendment also contains a huge list of firearms specifically identified by name, including the Simonov SKS and all variants, of which 22 are listed by name.


But the amendments are far worse than that.


Formerly unregulated spare parts, such as barrels and slides, will require a Possession and Acquisition Licence to purchase and possess.


The definition of “Prohibited Firearm” will be legislatively expanded to include any firearm “capable of discharging a projectile with a muzzle energy exceeding 10 000 Joules”, “a firearm with a bore diameter of 20 mm or greater” as well as all semi-automatic long guns with detachable magazines.


Liberals also propose to ban 3D-printed firearms by outlawing possession of “computer data that pertain to a firearm” … “that are capable of being used with a 3D printer, metal milling machine or similar computer system…”


Liberals propose to criminalize the distribution of this “computer data” used by 3D printers and CAD machines.


This is a glimpse into the newly created offences for which the majority of Canada’s 2.2 licensed firearms owners will now be criminalized, should these amendments to Bill C-21 become law.


More details to come as we dig deeper into this latest Liberal assault on RCMP-vetted, federally-licensed firearms owners.


The criminal possession and use of smuggled handguns, rifles and shotguns will, of course, remain unaffected by any of these measures.




So goodbuy a semi with a mag. Clips still allowed?

But Boco still has his. As long as Boco has his then nothings wrong, right?

Wow , glad I don't live there

No law against semi autos here-just have to plug them to 5 rounds.(Shotguns have to be plugged to 3 for waterfowl)
If you need more shots than that to kill something your a no good shot.

The three round plug is a law for waterfowl here, too. Except for spring snow geese, where extended mags are common, and a crap load of fun.

Friggin nuts! And the most common “assault rifle” in Canada survives once again……the SKS

I guess that depends on what kind and how many of something needs killing.

Zim

Has freedom been put on the endangered list yet, it should be.

Until this goes into effect

...I hope for you it doesn't

Nothing new there.

K

plenty of politicians in this country want to disarm us.

Truth

“ as well as all semi-automatic long guns with detachable magazines.” Is certainly new, and ridiculous!!!!!

Thankfully Alberta and a few others provinces are not going too enforce the last stupid law the turd passed, surely this one as well

Our 2nd amendment was written for when animals attack us!

How many people in a year do you shoot,lol.
No such nonsense here.
Guns are a tool of the trade.
I have never in my life in Canada thought about shooting someone.

I really do think = Its better to die on your feet. Than live on your knees.

Shakeyjake I think that reads that all variants of the SKS could be banned.

So what happens when people refuse to comply?

Probably have to partipate in a gay pride parade until you submit
