I think Canada's current gun laws are a reasonable compromise between the ability to own a firearm and public safety. People are committing mass murders because they are afraid of having their guns taken away? If they are that looney they effing well should have them taken away. What I am completely opposed to is going down the same rabbit hole as our southern neighbours. Edited July 8, 2022 by Aristides Quote

I think Canada's current gun laws are a reasonable compromise between the ability to own a firearm and public safety. as I say, I have no need for an automatic rile, I don't own one, so the gun laws are not bothering me when on Canadian soil I uphold my obligations to the Crrown I simply reject the idea that bolt action rifles are in fact "safer" than AR15's and that a mass sniper is actually more dangerous and so more terrifying than a mass shooter with an AR15 and furthermore, we have a government which allows open borders & defunds our security forces so we won't be able to keep the illegal weapons out of Canada and the police can't protect us, they demonstrated that with the recent mass shooting in Nova Scotia so might be a good idea for Canadians to own long guns of the not automatic non restricted kinds because guns are guns, its just a tool, whether you survive a gunfight or not, comes down to the shooter Edited July 9, 2022 by Dougie93 Quote

It has been very well explained wh Switzerland has fewer shootings and I have posted it here. Switzerland actually has very few guns per capita compared to the US.
