| Gun Control Misfire: Trudeau Pistol Ban Sees Stores Sell Out of Handguns |
| 2022-06-07 |
| [Breitbart] Gun stores in Canada have seen handguns fly off the shelves, with many selling out altogether after Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced gun control legislation freezing all pistol purchases. In what appears to be a seismic political misfire, Canadian gun stores have been reporting a massive surge in handgun sales after the country’s leftist prime minister, Justin Trudeau, announced that he would be implementing gun control laws totally freezing the import and sale of this class of firearm. Many shops in the country have now reportedly sold out of pistols entirely, despite extremely restrictive laws already in place in the country which can make the purchase of a handgun onerously difficult. According to a report by the AFP, every gun store owner who spoke to the agency openly derided Trudeau’s declaration that he would ban the sale of handguns, while also saying that they had all seen a massive surge in pistol sales since he made the announcement last week. The surge in pistol sales occurred in Canada despite the fact that this class of firearm is extremely difficult to buy in the country, requiring would-be owners to obtain multiple character references and signatures from their partners, on top of obtaining a licence and passing a stringent background check. According to a Newsweek article on the matter, handgun owners are also compelled by law to register their newly acquired firearms with the local police before even being allowed to take the weapon home. However, none of these draconian restrictions seem to be enough for Justin Trudeau, who announced that he had brought new legislation to Parliament which would totally freeze the sale and import of pistols in all Canada. “What this means is that it will no longer be possible to buy, sell, transfer or import handguns anywhere in Canada,” the leftist Prime Minister said, while seemingly using mass shootings in the United States to justify the ban. |
