People realized making guns even more illegal didn’t stop gangs from shooting people.

A combination of having trouble implementing the previous gun buyback and the Liberals wanting to have gun control available as a wedge issue for the next election. The Liberals will probably promise actually carrying out the buyback and to ban more guns as part of their campaign.

Are people with guns threatening to shoot government officials?

it would be easier to buy an illegal gun they pass all the requirement for a restricted weapons licence.

Oh that’s easy. They’re not going after gangbangers, or the people openly discharging a gun in a dense urban area trying to shoot someone and being released by a judge on the same day. Then doing it again.
They need the issue to cooldown and then try to push it again after some tragedy.

Same thing that happened with electoral reform, 2B planted trees, housing crisis solutions (x3), etc etc..
It’s just the Liberals, the modus operandi is to *promise* and collect votes, implementation details are far too boring for them 😛
I mean, it’s actually working for them, why change right?

It was really more of a “Liberal votes” kind of emergency.

It will come back when the next election comes around.

This sums it up…
“The Trudeau government, by comparison, excels at making announcements, and trips over its laces when it comes to implementation (see: pharmacare, defence procurement, appointing judges, vaccine development, dental care)”

It made enough money for the Liberals that they dont need to do anyhting about it anymore.

It stopped polling well in the GTA suburbs that the Liberals need to win?
Their only act of government has been ways to keep them in government. They don’t care what is good or bad.

It’s on the shelf until about a few months before the next election.

When do we get to legally buy handguns again? I’m tired of living like a criminal.

It’s not polling high enough with focus groups to make the talking points right now. Check back after a mass shooting in the States when the liberals can use fear mongering to restrict your rights more.

It was just a tactic to divide Canadians and show how different he was from the Conservatives.

Don’t you worry, the ‘emergency’ will urgently re-emerge when an election gets near. The abortion thing has already been trotted out, the *guns bad / CPC bad* thing can’t be far behind. *Talk, wedge, gaslight* is all this government seems to know how to do.

The Minister of Public Safety and Trudeau boasted and endorsed New Zealand’s Gun Ban in 2020. Now, Trudeau and CBC won’t even speak of it because it was a failure and New Zealand now walking back on that gun ban because it doesn’t work and will never work.

Because gangs are considered a rough background, not one’s fault and diverse, they won’t be punished

People woke up and used critical thinking and realized that lawful and responsible gun owners and hunters and sports shooters weren’t the problem. Plus, many of the groups that the Liberals wanted to use to buy back guns have told the government to take a hike.
