The Canadian Government may be coming for our guns.

Apparently Billy Blair the Minister of Border Security and Organized Crime Reduction for Canada was on the Evan Solomon show this weekend talking about his recent consultations with Canadians about gun control. Surveys were taken and the results were that 81% didn’t want more gun control. So since there isn’t time to bring forward legislation the government is considering an order in council which only requires 4 MP's to sign off on a bill to ban AR15’s and possibly handguns. Very democratic don’t you think. According to the RCMP there’s between 68000 and 90000 AR’s worth on average $1600 each. They’ll have to buy them all back. That’s a lot of money to accomplish nothing. Not to mention the more than 1 million handguns that will have to be taken through a buy back program.
