New Canadian Gun Laws?

More like a kick to the groin.

The list of proposed banned firearms in Canada is to be released May 1,2020. I already have that list as it was leaked by un-named person(s). This is going to be a big fight!

Will the list include gas operated bolt rifles?

its a Goddamn shame

Having grown up in Canada, served in the Canadian Forces for 18 years, and then moved to the US, I must confess I would find it very hard to move back.  I love my country of birth, but I hate its politics.  I’d be dammed to give up my AR and my 2 M1 rifles.  He!! They will probably ban the Ruger 10-22! 

Not wanting to get into a deep political discussion here.

looks remarkably similar to the firearms buy back scheme we had here in New Zealand. banned all semi auto centrefire rifles and restricted us to bolt action rifles and .22 semi as long as not over 10 rounds magazine capacity.

To be honest we were lucky that the buy back system was very generous with values and almost everyone I know walked away with dollars in the bank way over what they would have got normally. (most have gone out and purchased top-end bolt rifles)
many were sad to give up their semi autos , but burying them in the back yard was not a realistic option as it just means risking loosing your firearms licence for life.

Could have been worse, supposedly they were going to ban any rifle capable of holding more than 5 rounds, so that would have been the end of the Lee Enfields too.
Unlike the US of A, citizens here (and most commonwealth nations) have never had a "right to bear arms". firearms ownership is a privilage for law abiding upright citizens who prove theselves capable and safe firearms owners.
