Standing in front of a bunch of masked morons who have already accepted complete government control over their lives, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced that his administration was introducing legislation to ban the sale, transfer and importation of handguns in Canada.
The legislation would “implement national freeze on handgun ownership” throughout the country. “What this means is that it will no longer be possible to buy, sell, transfer or import handguns anywhere in Canada,” Trudeau said at a press conference.
Canadian Minister of Public Safety Marco Mendicino also said that a mandatory buyback program for “assault-style weapons” will go into effect later this year if the bill passes, calling it Canada’s “most significant action on gun violence in a generation.”

Trudeau told reporters, “there is no reason anyone in Canada should need guns in their everyday lives.” This bill, beyond a handgun freeze, also makes changes to bring in red flag laws to let police or courts seize the firearms of someone deemed a danger to themselves or others and it will force magazines for long guns to be capped at five rounds.
