If Dougie is splitting from the federal LPC policy then somethings wrong.

Nobody thinks it will work, and nobody outside urban Quebec thinks it’s a remotely serious or effective policy.
Window dressing for the Liberal base in Montreal.

Something about a broken clock. So does that make 4 provinces and a territory now not participating? Well, on top of the various police forces not helping either.

His solution? Bring back mandatory minimum sentencing, a system that has also been shown not to work.
So he’s still at least half an idiot.

wtf is going on lol like the deadline is already set and now premiers are saying they won’t take part and blah blah meanwhile gun owners will become criminals lol

I have yet to ever meet someone in the real world that supports this policy from any side of the political spectrum.
Like literally not one person ever.

He’s right but he’s only saying this cause he’s mad at Carney over the EV deal.

Bro what kinda hold does this lobby group have over the LPC? They got like Episten files or something?
This gun control program seems to be the only thing Mark and the rest of the LPC refuse to budge on

Here’s an idea – if Quebec wants to ban gun ownership then ban all the guns in Quebec. Leave the rest of the country alone with this poly se souvient nonsense.
One small special interest voting block should not get to dictate policy for the entire country. People wonder why there is such an east-west divide in Canada – this is part of the reason. The values of urban Quebec are different and do not apply in the rural west.
Not one single gun owner I know is complying with this bullshit law because we all know it will be repealed at some point.

It’s time to end it and let owners use their property again instead of caving to deranged lobbyists simply because they live in Montreal.

This is a weak sauce position.

STFU Doug! Literally all the smuggled guns are coming through your province! If you had your crap together the whole gun bans and buyback wouldn’t be happening in the first place!

Too many people in the country don’t understand how restricted our firearm programs already are. They see gangs using handguns and think gun control is going to solve that because they are just ignorant on the subject. I am a liberal and own several firearms. I am opposed to these confiscations even though I don’t have any of the firearms implicated nor do I have a need for them. Most of these are impacting collections and have no practical usage but still fun to use at the range.

Doug Jan 2026 when the Feds allow 🇨🇳 EVs to be imported threatening hundreds of thousands of jobs : *GUN BANS ARE BS*

Lets crack down on law abiding citizens to turn in their weapons, instead of investing money into better security at the CA/US border were thousands of illegal fire arms are smuggled into the country and used to commit crimes everyday. I would love to know the data on when a registered fire arm was used by the owner to commit a crime.
This liberal idea is one of the dumbest in a long time.

I’ve said it previously on other posts, a friend of ours works in the buyback program, she said from inception it’s been a shitshow. She was also notified her contract will not be renewed as of April 1 2026.

The feds, or at least, their own public safety minister, agree apparently. But they apparently see a select amount of Quebec voters as low-IQ enough to think that the buyback does **anything** to prevent gun violence

Oh the irony of this program perfect described by Carney’s speech
„In 1978, the Czech dissident Václav Havel, later president, wrote an essay called The Power of the Powerless. And in it, he asked a simple question: How did the communist system sustain itself?
And his answer began with a greengrocer. Every morning, this shopkeeper places a sign in his window: „Workers of the world, unite!“ He doesn’t believe it. No one does. But he places the sign anyway to avoid trouble, to signal compliance, to get along. And because every shopkeeper on every street does the same, the system persists.
Not through violence alone, but through the participation of ordinary people in rituals they privately know to be false.
Havel called this „living within a lie.“ The system’s power comes not from its truth but from everyone’s willingness to perform as if it were true. And its fragility comes from the same source: when even one person stops performing — when the greengrocer removes his sign — the illusion begins to crack.
Friends, it is time for companies and countries to take their signs down.“
Maybe IT IS TIME TO TAKE THE SIGNS DOWN
At least on topic of legal firearm and public safety, we no longer believe Liberal government can or willing to respect basic safety of citizen, tax payer, no longer care about real public safety, no long respect evidence based Canadian firearm law and hating traditional Canadian firearm culture.

You can see the downvotes on any article criticizing the gun buyback program in real time.
This should be a bipartisan issue.

Don’t let the govt gaslight you into thinking they’re doing this to appease „Quebec“.
They’re doing it to appease Poly Se Souvient and their member of parliament who is also a Poly founder…Nathalie Provost. If Poly doesn’t get their way they have a hissy fit and threaten not to invite the Libs to their annual memorial.
tdfast on
This is another example of Carney taking a bad play and at least getting the tie. You have to leave it in because the party demands it, but then you say nothing when all the provinces opt out.
So the proponents of it can say they won and the provinces can say they won.
And if you need Carney he’ll be over here creating a new world order.

I have a few issues with the LPC government. This and forcing the flight attendants back to work are the biggest. The flight attendants I can kind of understand given the situation, we are fighting a trade war and don’t need the extra hit to the economy (doesn’t make it right just another perspective worth accounting for). But the gun buyback isn’t going to make the country safer in any meaningful way and is expensive.

He needs to put his money where his mouth is.
Don’t participate in the buyback.

it wont, its not meant to. Its entirely a sham to virtue signal to a small loud minority in major cities. The liberals hate that Canadian gun culture isnt anything like American gun culture, it needs to be constantly stigmatized against as some sort of existential threat.
