That has to be the worst way to go. Unable to escape a sinking vehicle and drown. Hopefully they were lucky and unconscious from the fall but i doubt it. May the management that made the call to skimp out on boat engine maintenance find themselves behind bars.

AI without proper regulation could be the downfall of humanity. Many pros, but the cons may outweigh them. Opinion.

I deleted Facebook a couple years ago. Instagram is my guilty pleasure for car reels and god damn dancing toothless. It seems like the end of my ig use is getting closer

People are supposed to be complying with that since 2020 since it's announced. Yes 2025 is the amnesty deadline, but if people haven't taken part now, they won't by then.

Edit: the actual buyback program doesn't take effect until 2025 when the amnesty period ends. So again, with having 2000 models of weapons now prohibited since 2020, has it made an impact on firearm crime rates? Another question to ask is whether the buyback program will reduce crime rates. Which if all these prohibited weapons are already locked up like fort Knox, what real difference will it make?

Well I'm being told I'm confused on the timeline. Sure by a year or so. All I'm trying to prove is: is the law in question as to whether it is actually reducing crime. I've asked the same question a dozen times and all I get back is hey this guy is a dumb gun nut. In retrospect I could have worded a clearer question right off the bat. No one is perfect

On May 1, 2020, the Government of Canada announced a prohibition on more than 1,500 models and variants of assault-style firearms, such as the AR-15. Since then, approximately 500 additional variants of these prohibited firearms have also been prohibited.

There is a link to what I'm talking about.

This makes sense. You are able to apply for a license to carry a pistol, however chief firearms officers are denying them, regardless whether you meet criteria or not. The RCMP also will not disclose how many permits for carrying a handgun they issued on a given year. Fun facts.

You guys are nuts. I own zero firearms so I can take it or leave it. You putting words into my mouth is non helpful to the conversation. So why don't we go back to my original comment, which asked are recent amendments to gun laws actually cutting down on crime in Canada. Instead of attacking why don't you offer some anecdotal evidence like Mr cumfart over there instead of jumping into the echo chamber and attacking someone?

Between 2019 and 2023 the Canadian government issued a ban on "assault style weapons" including pistols shorter than 105mm in length.

Another commenter pointed out that law was to prevent them being stolen during break and enters which makes sense, but even then I've never heard of that happening. I'm sure it does in larger cities So back to the original question of did the change of law to give your newly prohibited weapons back to the government decrease crime rates?

I literally did not say that. I offered a conversation point to compare with what Canada has been doing and asked how it has cut down on crime

We started off talking about whether recent Canada gun law amendments actually cut down on firearm crime. You then presented statistics about the US.
