"I 'm not sure on the details of their plan , likely because they are n't sure of them . We 're still in the process of spending around 3 billion to register all the firearms in Canada . The announcement is a blatant attempt to garner votes in Toronto and Ontario , key election areas , where gun violence is highest . I have no use for handguns , and I do n't even know anyone that would be directly affected by the ban , but it 's a matter of principle . It 's the first step on a slippery slope . We all know that the vast majority of gun crime is carried out with registered , legally obtained handguns . Therefore , banning handguns in Canada will surely solve the problem . Where do they find the retards that dream this stuff up ? First of all , handguns are nearly impossible to obtain legally in Canada as it is , 95 % + of handguns used in crimes in Canada have been illegally smuggled into the country from the USA . Even the police forces are saying that the law is pointless as it would only serve to increase the smuggling of handguns from the US , and would likely not have any impact on the rate of handgun use in crimes . On top of that , it would no doubt be another extremely expensive venture . There are times when I really question the intelligence of the average Canadian , especially those in Ontario and Quebec . Some of them need a dose of reality . Waxy"
"Does the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms permit the private ownership of handguns or perhaps ( as in the US ) grant a right to bear arms `` that shall not be infringed `` ?"
