What happened to Canada When government took their guns
The government has made this move, which will do basically nothing to address gun crime, during a wave of gun violence. So far this year, there have been 351 shootings in Toronto alone, with 41 people killed. According to the Toronto Police Service, most guns used in violent crime in Toronto—mainly certain types of handguns prohibited in Canada—are smuggled into the country.
Of course, this latest attempted gun ban is part of larger trend. In a few short years, the Trudeau government has mandated the confiscation of more than one million firearms, with a total value of more than $4.0 billion, all owned by law-abiding Canadians. These confiscations are based entirely on vague claims about potential threats to public safety, will do basically nothing to make Canadians safer, and target guns not criminals.
First, in 2020 the government issued an "Order-in-Council"—basically a decision by the prime minister and his cabinet, without parliamentary debate—to ban all so-called "assault-style" firearms. In reality, these firearms are simply military-looking semi-automatic rifles and shotguns, which have been popular for more than 100 years. But they are now prohibited and must be surrendered to the government before the amnesty expires in October 2023. It's unclear how many firearms the ban covers—estimates vary from 150,000 to more than 500,000, with a value estimated at around $2.0 billion. This estimate includes almost $1.0 billion in inventory losses that retailers will suffer due to stock that can't be sold or returned to suppliers.
Then in 2022, the Trudeau government (again, via an Order-in-Council) announced a "national freeze" on handgun sales, effectively rendering approximately one million legal firearms (valued at more than $1.0 billion) worthless. The freeze prohibits the legal sale or inheritance of almost all handguns and requires them to be surrendered without compensation when the owner passes away. The government's decision, if maintained, will eventually eliminate target sports and put many fish-and-game clubs under severe financial pressure because they rely on target sports for much of their income. The government will allow special permits for a small number of Olympic competitors, security guards, and wilderness activities such as trapping.
Taken together, with two strokes of the pen, the Trudeau government has sought to confiscate more than $3.0 billion of private property from law-abiding Canadians while simultaneously likely bankrupting hundreds of small businesses and about one-third of Canada's firearm industry. And if this week's amendments to Bill C-21 become law, these numbers will surely rise.
So why is the Trudeau government doing this? Will this crackdown on law-abiding gunowners make Canadians more safe?
Simply put, no. Peer-reviewed research shows that previous legislation prohibiting the possession and acquisition of certain firearms made no discernable impact on the rates of homicide, spousal homicide or suicide in Canada or other countries. Bans of short-barrelled handguns, semi-automatic or military-looking firearms have also had no demonstrable beneficial effect on homicide rates.
Moreover, according to testimony by the Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police and other police representatives at the House of Commons Standing Committee on Public Safety and National Security (SECU), both the freeze on handgun sales and buy-back of so-called assault firearms are misdirected and this money would be better spent tackling illegal guns in the hands of criminals rather than collecting hundreds of thousands of lawfully-owned firearms. Again, most guns used in violent crime in Toronto are smuggled. Border guards testified that due to gaping holes in Canada's border security, guns could easily slip through unless new technology and new funding were provided. Available statistics strongly support these testimonies.
For a while now my husband and I have shuttered every time Gayle King is on... and are so Relieved when She and Your Newest Mistake. Nate. Are OFF for the day! We've never seen anyone that loves the sound of their own voice More than Gayle... she interrupts. Cuts everybody off... and constantly reiterates word for word verbatim what the previous person just said... as if we weren't there watching and listening ourselves... (And YOU Continue to Allow it! What the Heck's Wrong withYOU GUYS?) but Nate B. Is completely cloned! If you will, it's like you took him to Gayle K. School! Not to mention he is outstandingly 100% a Pig... he's chauvinistic and so full of himself it borders lunacy... his latest comments regarding "Grand Cougars" is evidence of it. If that was NOT enough he declared on national TV today he wears NOTHING under his clothing in the way of briefs... or anything else... as if we care? Why in the world do you keep someone like HIM on your news station?. Is this the best you can do? And it begs the question... exactly WHAT sort of Husband and Father is This Person? WE Can't even call him a Man. And Gayle... Just Needs to shut up... because it's no small wonder WHY she lives ALONE! A point she will NOT Rest on til she's SURE the entire world population knows! Why Exactly is Nate Impactful? Can he even Spell the word? Tony D. Should literally be running the show. He is NOT Racist. Or Questionable in his Behavior or in his comments regarding his personal life... he is a Gentleman... to ALL Races! It's Obvious he loves his wife and ALL his children... but Nate and Gayle clearly ARE Racist! And Not just regarding other Races, but even inside their own Race... They applaud ALL the behavior pertaining to THEM Only... if the Person being discussed were WHITE... They both Might give a Nod... which only makes the majority of your audience left rolling eyes or yawning. Rethink your patting them both on the back for their inappropriate flirtatious behavior or TMI regarding their personal lives which NO ONE Gives a "Rats A$&"... make it stop... before the world just Shuts you Down, or Turns You OFF! And we wanted to be sure and Applaud Vlad D. Because if Tony D. And Vlad D. We're running the CBS Morning news... people might actually get excited about turning it on in the morning while they wake up and have their coffee together. No strings... No confrontational remarks... nothing but a Positive Take on our already crumbling depraved society. If you only knew how many times my husband and I started this comment and then erased it for fear of Rebuke. But Seriously... Enough is Enough. You need to Clean Your House! Send Gayle and Nate to their respective rooms and don't let them come out until they grow up. If they want to be treated like an Adult, then by God Start behaving like one. Sorry... but this has been a longtime coming. We only WISH we had spoke up Sooner.
Ok... I read your guidines... especially the following paragraph; "We ask that you refrain from profanity (kids need to read online reviews too!) and personal attacks such as hate speech, bigotry, and lewdness."
My review is NOT a personal attack, hate speech OR bigotry. It is just stating REAL FACTS.
When I watched Michelle Obama saying how afraid they are to live in OUR country and how afraid she is to see her daughters get in a car, I was quite amazed.
Has SHE and CBS News not SEEN the BLM and the black protestors attacking SENIOR Citizens, some in wheel chairs!
I am a white senior citizen. I think that OUR lives matter too. I am afraid to go into our Walmart in Whitehall, and Allentown PA. I am afraid of getting my head bashed in, by people of color, because of ALL of the violent videos that I have seen online.
TIME and TIME again, I have seen incidents where black people are seen beating on white seniors, and Chinese people. Yet, YOUR News station doesn't seem to show the violence that these people are putting out across the ENTIRE United States.
All we hear from Biden and Harris is white supremacists, SERIOUSLY? I believe that the tables have turned!
One story in particular, an older defenseless white woman in a handicapped shopping cart comes out of a grocery store, a young obese black woman proceeds to pummel her in her head, numerous times, from behind!
IS THIS NOT VIOLENCE against white people?
A black man walking past an older small Chinese woman beats the crap out of HER, while a man in the store watches and shuts the door?!?!?
A black man beats an oriental man, senseless, in the doorway of a bus... does your station report these blacks on other races attacks? Or don't THESE lives matter?
Where is the coverage about THESE BLACKS beating the crap out of white defenseless seniors, and Oriental people, for NO REASON?
Your News seems Bigoted. Michelle Obama seems totally oblivious of the black attacks against other races, which is what your guidelines for writing review says you disagree with?!?!?
What kind of signal is this putting out to DIVIDE our United States even MORE than we are already divided!
IS THIS NOT biased reporting? I am totally tired of the double standard!
Michelle Obama, once again playing the race card to DIVIDE and Conquer OUR United States of America!
In ALL HONESTY Gayle King, if YOU were an unbiased reporter. You would NOT be reporting such one-sided News Stories, since this violence goes BOTH WAYS.
There is violence on BOTH sides. In ALL honesty the black people can be seen CONSTANTLY killing their own, especially gangs, who do drive by shootings and kill innocent, little black children.
The latest story of the little 8 year old black girl, at a McDonald's, in the car with her drug dealing father. She ends up with 8 or 9 bullets in her, from a rival gang shooting, yet her father lived!
What a shame... it should have been the other way around! That little girl should still be alive!
Yet... NO MENTION of this violence. Blacks on blacks, blacks on old defenseless white seniors, and Orientals... YES Michelle... we are afraid TOO!
SERIOUSLY MICHELLE OBAMA and Gayle King open your biased eyes to the REAL TRUTH in our country, and PLEASE STOP PLAYING the race card to divide OUR Country!
Michelle, why don't you, your husband, and children move to a Country where you will feel safe? Your family will NOT be missed, here in the United States of America.
My suggestion, maybe your family could move over to George Soro's country and take the Clintons, and Nancy Pelosi with you. Maybe Gayle King would like to go too!
Now let's see if "FREEDOM OF SPEECH" applies to MY post.
This is a review against the quality of CBS News morning show with Gayle King.
