The fascist Canadian government, under the “leadership” of fürer, Justin Trudeau, said Thursday, December 5 that it is outlawing another 324 varieties of firearms. Public Safety Minister Dominic LeBlanc says these guns belong on the battlefield, not in the hands of hunters or sport shooters.

This follows the May 2020 ban on 1,500 firearm makes and models that grew to more than 2,000 by November 2024 as new variants were identified, with determinations made through what LeBlanc describes as a “robust” consultation with RCMP firearms “experts.” Not to be satisfied without total subjugation, the move also follows expressions of concern from liberal gun-control advocates who believe that not enough assault-style firearms were included in the 2020 ban.

“This means these firearms can no longer be used,” LeBlanc said.

Defense Minister Bill Blair said Canada has approached Ukrainian authorities about working with their government to see how the guns can be donated to support Ukraine’s fight against Russia. Ukraine has expressed interest in some of the guns, a move that could see them receive more supplies in the short term while it will definitely cause them continued loss of support from conservatives. 

“Every bit of assistance we can offer to the Ukrainians is one step toward their victory,” Blair said, unable to see the forest through the trees.

The Canadian federal government says it is working with provinces, territories, and police on a planned buyback of prohibited weapons from individual owners, but don’t let the language fool you. Just as an amnesty order followed the May 2020 prohibition, a similar order is now in place until October 30, 2025, allowing licensed firearms owners time to relinquish their firearms. Only firearms disposed of through the government’s Assault-style Firearms Compensation Program, however, will be eligible for compensation. Those firearms deactivated or turned over to police during the amnesty period will not be.

Let’s call it what it is, a confiscation. Make it easy on us and we’ll throw you pennies on the dollar. Make us wait and we’ll just take your property. Fascism.

While mass shootings are relatively rare in Canada, these newly announced measures coincide with the eve of the 35th anniversary of the shooting at École Polytechnique in Montreal, where a gunman killed 14 women before turning the gun on himself. Included in the 2020 ban was the Ruger Mini-14 used by that gunman, Marc Lepine, a ranch rifle and hardly a “weapon of war,” but history tells us this isn’t about war or what is used on the battlefield. Criminals intent on killing will always have the means, one way or another, and the government is aware. History tells us definitively that this is purely about subjugation, and we know where that leads.

“These are just killing weapons, war weapons, military weapons, so I’m proud we are doing something,” said Nathalie Provost, a survivor wounded in the Montreal attack, blocking any semblance of sympathy I may have had to offer. 

Interestingly, the SKS, having been used in several shootings, remains legal due to many Indigenous people using the rifle for hunting, however, a decision on the firearm is expected to come by February before the next phase of the “buyback” program.

“We want to reflect on this over the coming weeks,” said LeBlanc.

Pierre Poilievre, the opposition conservative leader, called the announcement a “stunt” by Trudeau’s government that attacks “licensed & law-abiding hunters and sport shooters.”

Tracey Wilson of the Canadian Coalition for Firearm Rights (CCFR) says that liberals have learned nothing over their eight-year-long attempt to confiscate guns.

“This is typical Liberal Party divide-and-conquer politics, they know they are out of time and Canadians are out of money… They know the Tories will repeal it all in less than 10 months. They haven’t used an Order in Council to deal with the daily violence plaguing Canada, no action on repeat violent offenders, no response to the pleas of law enforcement. Nothing.”

She continued, criticizing the government for summarily banning guns via orders-in-council rather than legislation.

“The liberals have normalized the subversion of Canada’s democratic process for their own political maneuvering,” said Wilson.

But what does Wilson mean when she says “they are out of time?” The amnesty period for the new measures ending on October 30, 2025, falls 10 days after the mandated day for the next federal election, and conservatives believe that Canadians have had enough of the liberal government. 

Nicolas Johnson, a policy analyst and thegunblog.ca editor says he’s not aware of a single gun owner who has any intention to hand over their legally purchased firearms.

“The liberals have no idea how to execute their confiscation fantasy, no money to pay for it, and no way to enforce it … The liberals are appearing increasingly weak, desperate, and extreme with this latest measure,” Johnson told the Toronto Sun.

Johnson’s sentiment echoes the unpopularity of previous attempts by the Trudeau liberals to apply blanket bans on firearms. In 2022, Canadian liberals quietly tabled a pair of amendments to their gun control bill that would have outlawed legal rifles used daily by hunters and sport shooters after massive blowback from those groups and First Nations, a move described by the opposition Tories as a “humiliating climb-down” for Trudeau.

Ultimately the Canadian left is much like their counterparts here in America. They will throw spaghetti at the walls to see if they can get anything to stick, with reckless abandon for wasting taxpayer resources and shifting focus away from the best interests of their constituents. Perhaps Canada is headed for a reckoning similar to what we experienced in America’s 2024 presidential election. One thing is for certain. All the government saber-rattling is losing its teeth as the people seem increasingly fed up.
