Bill C-71 Is Now Law
“Bill C-71 has received Royal Assent,” the Senate said at 14:41 Ottawa time today on Twitter following the official ceremony where the king or queen’s representative approves draft legislation into law.

I hope those liberal gun owners, maybe not here but on other platforms, are happy.

The election is coming, there is hope. If that fails, time to push separation and not just for this issue.

How he ( TruDum) got there is beyond me,
How the working , law abiding public of Canada has allowed this illegitimate twerp to continue his fuddling is even more beyond comprehension

Conservatives might do something like their ombudsman. But they are not going to repeal this law. It's a game of political football. Guess who's the ball?

Oregon has similar problems. Left democrats pushing forward on increased carbon style tax. Republicans not going make it easy for mob lefty’s. Arrest republicans to sign bills.

Well, when it comes time for them to come confiscate the guns they want to ban, they should send Trudeau, Blair, and Goodale door to door with their checkbook to confiscate them. Cukier can be their backup. That way we can let the LEOs do their job dealing with criminals, and not distract them from the real issue.
That should work out perfect. Really perfect.

May well be something to this:
Trudeau all talk, no walk on gun bans -- thank God
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s promise to ban “assault style weapons” after the next election is great news for law-abiding gun owners and target shooters in Canada.
A ban makes zero sense, will do absolutely nothing to prevent crime, in fact it would increase the number of shootings by diverting government resources away from fighting gangs, and is the last thing law-abiding gun owners want.
So, why is it great news?
Because, If we’ve learned anything about Trudeau over the past four years, it’s that he doesn’t keep promises.
Trudeau is all sizzle, no steak. He’s all hat, no cattle. All talk, no walk. And, thank God for it.
Announcement. No action. Move on. Repeat.
Trudeau has established a predictable pattern of behaviour on hot-button issues: he makes an announcement, then does nothing about it and moves on to the next shiny object. Wash, rinse, repeat.
In a press announcement, Trudeau accepted there is an ongoing genocide targeting Canada’s indigenous peoples. Genocide is a crime against humanity. Somebody should probably do something about that. What did he do? Nothing. He moved on.
On Monday, the Liberal government declared a “Climate Emergency” in the House of Commons. Emergencies are serious things that normally demand immediate action. What action did Trudeau take? Nothing. He moved on.
In fact, the very same day, he jetted off to party with the Raptors in Toronto, then back to Ottawa for a meeting before flying to Montreal. Serious stuff, these “climate emergencies.”
During the 2015 election campaign, Trudeau promised to end first-past-the-post elections. Did nothing. Moved on. He promised to balance the budget in 2019. Did nothing to make that happen – quite the opposite, in fact. He moved on.
The way I see it, a promise from Trudeau to seize billions of dollars worth of legally-owned, lawfully stored private property from law-abiding gun owners is fantastic news. A Trudeau promise almost guarantees it will never happen.
Which is good for everyone, because it’s a gobsmackingly stupid idea.
Even Bill Blair, Trudeau’s beleaguered minister of border security and organized crime reduction, seemed to have difficulty keeping a straight face when he told reporters last week the government had abandoned plans for a blanket handgun ban but would act to ban “assault-style weapons” quickly after the next election, because they “are so dangerous … there’s no place in a safe and civil society for them.”
So dangerous, the government must act. But … not so dangerous the government must act now. Why? Because Trudeau, thankfully, has moved on.
They’ll get to it soon-ish. Right after we re-elect them. Eventually. Maybe. Or not.
Gun owners can breathe a bit easier. For now.
Sadly, so can the subhuman thugs who murder kids with guns. Who carry guns in public. Who shoot people in crowds. Because, while Trudeau’s government has been steadfastly focused on ways to seize rifles from the innocent people who are least likely to ever hurt anybody with their firearms, they’ve done absolutely nothing to crack down on the gangs who kill with impunity on our streets.
Please, Mr. Prime Minister – do not make a promise to get tough on gangs. No announcement. No new laws. Canada already has all the laws it needs to make our streets safer.
All we are lacking is a government, a prime minister, with the guts to act.
Just do it. Or, move on in October.

Well...maybe. Or maybe wishful thinking. I don't trust those 'morally superior, virtue signalling' snakes as far as I can throw them.
The Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms doesn't seem to be worth the paper it's written on. Multiple classes of citizens, no property rights, warrantless searches on the law abiding just because they own guns.
A big load of crap, notwithstanding the past week's legislative attack on Alberta by a Liberal government with a 'mandate' from 39% of the population.
I'm strongly advocating for a referendum, and it's not about equalization payments (which is a worthless exercise).
