The Canadian Landowner Alliance advocates for provincial legislation that recognizes property rights, and, that the Federal Government of Canada enshrines property rights in the Charter of Rights and freedoms.
Gun laws in Canada are getting amajor overhaul. "These measures would streamline licensing and eliminate needless red tape for law-abiding gun owners,"
Too bad you have to get to the bottom of the article to find the horseshit:
"The Minister is also expected to unveil a separate regulation -- to take effect Wednesday -- that will allow owners of Swiss Arms and CZ 858 rifles to use them and transport then as they did before the RCMP controversially and arbitrarily prohibited them earlier this year.
While those guns will still technically be classified as prohibited weapons, there will be an exception for people who already own them so that they can treat them as though they were never reclassified (non-restricted or restricted rifles depending on barrel length)."
So, the government didn't have the guts to take away the power that an unelected bureaucrat (RCMP Commissioner) has to arbitrarily declare any type of firearm that he doesn't like the looks of, "Prohibited".

I want to be the person in charge of coming up with these fancy names - "Economic Action Plan", "Common Sense Firearms Licensing Act" etc.
