The \u0027temporary\u0027 ban will last until a government\u002Dtabled permanent freeze on handguns is passed by parliament and comes into effect

The change will last until a permanent freeze is passed in Parliament and comes into force.

In the meantime, Foreign Affairs Minister Melanie Joly said she has the authority to ban any import or export permit in Canada. “Given that nearly all our handguns are imported, this means that we’re bringing our national handgun freeze even sooner,” Mendicino said. “From that moment forward, the number of handguns in Canada will only go down.”
