A Gloe poll was taken regarding handguns a day after the federal government tabled new gun-control legislation

on Monday would cover most of this commitment, but stops short of banning possession outright.

The federal government earmarked about $312-million in last year’s budget to implement stronger border control measures to fight gun smuggling and trafficking, noting that more than double the firearms were seized at border crossings in 2021 compared to the previous year. The polling also highlighted support from Ontarians to expand access to publicly operated long-term care homes with 78 per cent in favour of increasing funding. Just 2 per cent said funding for public homes should be decreased.

Funny cause sales are through the roof

And how many of the respondants were in cities and how many know that criminals don't have gun licenses?

Stupid rules

Like many things in Canada, showing how much not like America we are, doesn't mean we're being smart. Most people in a poll support a given position. Most people are idiots, regardless of the side they chose.

Explains PMJT’s announcement timing just before ON election…anything to divide us

Q: Should illegal handguns be banned?

Meanwhile ppl are buying them before rules set in

Cant see how they can ban smuggling of handguns

What demographic was specifically targeted for this polls results?

What!! This is just proof that these so called pills are fake!

Stupid. It won't change anything. Just government taking law abiding citizens their guns. Criminals are still going to have them.

How about the liberal party’s proposal today to search cellphones without warrants. Wow

What do the party leaders say ?

Well, not everyone.

A hand gun is to kill people. Or pretend to shoot people on a target.

Morning Update: Ottawa to halt handgun sales, imports, but stops short of total banGun-control advocates say the new legislation, Bill C-21, is just a first step toward curbing firearm-related violence in Canada Thank you. Leaving out the US, this is more in line with other peer nations who have far fewer gun deaths than us. Also stops short of providing a real plan for ending gun violence in Toronto slums.
