Trudeau’s Liberal Gov. Imposes Immediate Ban on “Assault Weapons”

By Jim Grant

U.S.A. -(AmmoLand.com)-On May 1, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced his government’s latest gun control measure, a wide-ranging ban on thousands of semiautomatic guns. Speaking at a press conference, he advised:

“Today we are closing the market for military grade assault weapons in Canada. We are banning 1,500 models and variants of these firearms by way of regulations. These weapons were designed for one purpose and one purpose only, to kill the largest number of people in the shortest amount of time. There is no use and no place for such weapons in Canada… So, effective immediately, it is no longer permitted to buy, sell, transport, import, or use military grade assault weapons in this country.”

To “protect law-abiding gun owners from criminal liability until they can take steps to comply with this new law,” the new ban includes an “amnesty period” that expires on April 30, 2022. Given that sales and similar transfers are now illegal, the Prime Minister added that his government will “legislate fair compensation.”
