Seems they handed the guns in voluntarily rather than being grabbed.

Millions and millions spent to get to this point, the govt got a grand total of 25 firearms from people who don’t break the law anyways, does everyone feel safer?

This is not a serious country anymore. Mass Non-compliance is the only way forward.
Edit : They gave up thier legal property for $1658.00???? Like come on seriously?

>That’s according to Public Safety Canada, who told the Toronto Sun $26,535 was handed out in compensation to those 16 people — an average of $1,658.44 per firearm.
Can the Toronto Sun not do basic math? That’s average of $1,658.44 _per person_, not per firearm. 25 firearms were collected, so the average per firearm is $1,061.40.

Brain dead policy

>The 25 guns confiscated in during the government’s trial gun grab in Cape Breton were handed in by 16 individuals.
Keep in mind they were expecting like 200 guns, they picked an area that was supposed to be an easy win and it still flopped.
The best part is that the entire program does nothing for public safety. What an absolute joke.

They will not be getting my vote whenever the next election is. This policy is stupid on levels that’s beyond comprehension.
If they get rid of it then sure, but this has to be one of the top 3 worst policies that’s been put forward in the last 20 years

Every Canadian should be right upset about this, they said they are doing it just to win votes in Quebec. Every Canadian is paying for votes, many which will go to the bloc, a party that all Canadians can’t vote for. I think people forget where the government gets it money from.

This gun grab has coat millions of dollars. It’s paid out $25k.
Once again, a Liberal project that hires a ton of Liberal connected consultants in one big corrupt scheme to rob the public.

Just painful to see my hard earned tax money wasted on such a program designed to do nothing about public safety but rather to buy votes in quebec and satisfy the unqualified „experts“ that is the antigun lobby who hates legal firearm ownership and treat Canada as if it is part of USA. Just insane. PULL THE PLUG and leave Canadians alone.
