Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is placing a nationwide freeze on the sale, purchase and transfer of handguns, effective immediately.

"When people are being killed, when people are being hurt, responsible leadership requires us to act," Trudeau said at aon Friday, announcing the new measure."Recently again, we have seen too many examples of horrific tragedies involving firearms."

Update: People can no longer buy, sell, or transfer handguns within Canada – and they cannot bring newly acquired handguns into the country.In addition to a ban on handgun sales, it is also now forbidden to bring newly acquired handguns into Canada. The freeze is being met with elation from gun reform groups who welcomed the immediate action.

"Reducing the proliferation of handguns is one important example of the evidence-based measures Canada needs to reduce gun violence and save lives," Canadian Doctors for Protection from Guns

WAKE UP CANADIANS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Problem solved. Gun violence extinct.

what a azz

Black face communist

This dingbat needs to stick to his colorful clown socks and shut his yapper

🙏🙏🙏

🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️😂😂😂

We may have to send the 'Salvation Army' up there to awake this awoke Commie ! LOL

Just like a gay boy

🥸

And that kids, is why we have a Second Ammendment. Because who wants to trust their freedom to Fidel Castro’s bastard?

To clarify, it was the Parliament of Canada that passed the ban, including multiple parties in the House of Commons and the Senate.

Canada will fall like Venezuela. Trudeau has proved to be a dictator of the most evil kind

You guys say Trudeau did it as if we didn't vote for him to do it. You know he works for Canada, yes?

as a Canadian who hates gun culture, this makes me really happy.

GOOD FOR HIM AND GOOD FOR CANADA! HOORAY!

Hopefully, this will be reversed once a new prime minister is in power.

Who is afraid of guns? Dictators.

Just like every other dictator before committing genocide.🤔

Could care less about a dictator.

douche

NPR credibility score: 0. Defund today.

You guys are done for

They aren’t hamstringed by a constitutional amendment. This should hurt the gun industry and the NRA.

Good

I'm sure all the criminals put their plans on hold.

This is how a leader should run a country.

There goes freedom.

Communism is a tough road.....

We should put a freeze on the Lieberal and NeverDemandProofofaccountability parties spending

Damn, criminals gonna be pissed. How will they ever buy and sell guns now?

Wascally7Wabbit Corporations are not allowed to make political contributions in Canada. And each citizen cannot give more than the equivalent of 1000 USD to a candidate during a federal election and another 1000 USD to one or more political party. This changes everything in terms of lobbying.

completely unconstitutional and illegal in the USA but I wouldn’t put it past the Democrats to try it here too. Vote them all out!

BlackfaceHitler

Tyrant

We should put a freeze on the Lieberal and NeverDemandProofofaccountability parties

Damn murder by knives are very close to guns this year let’s ban those too smfh. The streets will still get whatever weapon they want. But fly knives have been banned since I was a kid I got caught with one when I was a teen so there’s that. Punish law abiding citizens smfh

Trudeau is a Communist like Biden.

The first step toward communism

Smells like tyranny

Get ready Canada to fully turn into a communist country. Your ability to fight back is being stripped. You are being setup to be ruled! Good luck with that.

Check Toronto news. How well is it working so far?

For all you supporters this ain’t going to stop illegal handguns from getting to our streets y’all brainwashed lmfao. I can still go buy an illegal gun right now if I wanted to from my local gun smuggler. This is punishing law abiding citizens fact

Which is why we shall always protect the 2A. Thank you Canada for a timely reminder.

Now there will be more illegal ones going around!!

One 50 cal round or protest him like they did that prime minister in the UK ones cheaper than the other

I don't agree with everything this guy does but good on him. Great decision and I hope this will be a permanent fixture in Canadian law.

Dictates* The verb is dictates

Thank goodness!

Now stop the American gangsters from bringing the illegal guns that kill Canadians to our Safe Country

I’m fine with that as long as sale of brown paint is halted to him.

AllHailKingTrudeau

Thank you PM Trudeau for protecting our freedoms the freedom to come home and not in a body bag

If you celebrate something like this, you are a begging for a dictatorship. That simple.

Piece of well you know!

Canadian dictator.

That man is legit evil big time.

Following in the footsteps of Mao, Stalin, and Pol Pot.

Good for you!! Excellent!!

He is a total narcissist.

AmySandSand Americans are “it looks so simple.”

Good thing we have the 2nd amendment

Pathetic. Trudeau cuts slack for illegal gun owners who commit crimes. Cracks down on legal gun owners. Recall his war on working class truckers and his lies about them?

Criminals will still end your life with or without a tool and if Canada is like New York City, and gives all their violent criminals,a slap on the wrist The people will soon realize that all they did was allowed for a massive population of victims.

That man is authoritarian as fuck. Oh, Canada.

Criminals still have guns

Canada had 277 homicides by firearms in 2020. 277 the entire year, for the entire country. Chicago hits that number in half a year or less. This isn’t about removing guns for safety. This is a tyrant taking guns to ensure no resistance to his tyrannical eco agenda…

I'm still buying one.

Great, so now only criminals will be selling and purchasing guns. If youthink that makes your nation safer, you are seriouslymistaken

There is more to murder and harming others than the weapon of choice. It is critical to find the root cause of why someone would take another person’s life….

misspelled *Dictator Trudeau

Has he confiscated all guns yet?

Will the tyrant get away with it?

South Africa under apartheid, allowed white law, white supremacist policemen to have guns while oppressed citizens could not. May everything, he has done to the over 600+ sovereign Indigenous nation, now come back on him and his family. May the world sanction his white economy.

Uh oh

Wish US would

Good for him they should do that here

If you are pro-gun, then move to the states.

Hero...

Fascist.

I'm an Albertan & im not listening to a word he says..

I feel sorry for the Canadian citizens to have such a Nazi of a leader.

Canada has fallen. Tyrant.

Disarming his country before it goes full communist.

AWESOME, wish we could do this

Another reason for All liberals to move to Canada

Just like his father

Hell yeah!

No more Canadians trekking south for freedom. Stay in your own country.

Canada falling further into fascism

ThatsMyPrimeMinister 🇨🇦🍁🇨🇦🍁🇨🇦🍁🇨🇦🍁🇨🇦

Canada is a fake country

They don’t have a 1st amendment either…

Cuck

I did Nazi that coming 😂

Castro’s kid is a tyrant!

Canada is lost and will be a communist state before long. Gun free zones kill people

😡😡😡 China will be knocking on your door very soon

What a clown

This is old news. He just recently banned them

And it doesn't do a damn thing about the ILLEGAL guns in the hands of drug smugglers and gang bangers who are actually killing people. Canadians are more likely to die in a LIVESTOCK STAMPEDE than to be murdered with a legally-owned handgun.

Next is confiscation. Then the citizens can no longer prevent tyranny from taking over.

Always knew Canada couldn't be trusted

What a zero.

👎🏻

You know the slave collar of tyrannical governance is about to snap shut around your throat when the government removes ways for its citizens to defend themselves.

Americans:

idiot.

castro jr will close churches soon.

Fascism at work.

While he lowers minimum sentencing for gun crimes! What a clown show.

Never go full Hitler.

Hitler did the same thing.

Welcome to 1984

Next up antivaxers and climate deniers are going to be loaded into cattle cars

This is what fascism looks like

Good for Canada but don't try that shit here, the left loves Canada and Australia, because they can do what they did to the truckers, and they in Australia can put you in a damn camp if you break out from covid restrictions, they don't dare try here because of our gun rights

How does someone defend themselves?

What a commie/nazi turd

Enacted and announced by the Prime Minister after the proposed legislation was passed by a majority in parliament, reviewed and passed by the Senate and signed into law by the Governor General. That's how the rule of law works.

YAY. GO CANADA!!!

No freeze on illegal guns... who is bringing them across...where are they getting them. Are the police actuly recovering any of these.

Holy crap.

Oh no! Poor Canadians will be in danger now from the Mounties, and illegal American immigrant drug dealers! Quick! Sell them some AK47s!

I would interpretely listen to it. Guns are a pathetic conveerance of weaker transcribedy's converging on a control composite of others valuables or similar.

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

How very Hitler of him.

wcruz73 And here I am literally sending my resume to a Canadian recipient this morning. Darn. (That’s sarcasm, by the way. I live in Texas, for fuck’s sake. Please get me out of here!)

this is fascism

Ya but he won't ban air bnb or investigate money washing in the housing industry and has been at the forefront of a national housing crisis. Poverty causes crime. This hand gun ban is mickey mouse politics.

They are playing politics to distract from their failures. They know there is no connection between criminal violence and legally owned firearms. They needed a big headline and this is what they use every time. They don’t care that this hurts a significant number of good people.

And still allowing in tje illegal ones without improved measured . Thanks JT

Well, he's in good company. Hitler, Stalin, Pol Pot, Gaddafi, Mao, Maduro. Pray for Canada!

Canadians have already pissed away their freedom by electing and re-electing this turd. What’s another brick from the wall.

And we're very happy about it!

What most folks replying to the positive about this dont realize, is that since this announcement yesterday. 3 shootings occured and 1 person died. All caused by gangs! Baning lawful handguns does not prevent criminals from being criminals! Worst its going to boost the black mrkt

That's great they should do that in the US... But it won't happen because only the bad guys will have guns then

Fantastic I love this guy.

Handguns? I thought you all were trying to ban AK rifles? Hmm 🤔

People will call this communism precisely demonstrating how the meaning of that word is entirely lost on them

How is that working out? Law abiding citizens are not the problem here.

It is so embarrassing that our country has so many mass shootings that other countries are passing gun restrictions.

Like criminals follow laws, right? Vanilla soy latte clown.

Thank god I don’t live in Canada and nobody cares about NPR

Why you fear the freeze when you can buy a machine gun?

Commie filth, just like his Dad Fidel.

Nearly all gun violence in Canada is from illegally smuggled in weapons from the US, not from lawful gun owners.

Justin trudeau has turned canada into a facist state he is the modern day fidel Castro

This IS what I voted for, so as a Canadian I wholeheartedly support Gun ownership is NOT a right in Canada, never has been We do NOT have a 2nd amendment equivalent

POTUS somebody is brave…

This is wrong. All the hand gun owners I know a very responsible. I assume him purchase requirements haven’t changed. Then why this ban?

Slowly, incrementally creating a ruling class that can’t be removed by the people.

Yeah, we don't want the fringe minority with unacceptable views to lawfully bear firearms and continue to use them responsibly. I mean, how do we tolerate these people.

Good

It's a certainty that Trudeau's security team has guns.

Nazi

alyouckton Canada continue to lead the way on gunreform and understanding, “It’s the guns”.

Commies gonna Commie.

Fascists

👏🏼

The beginning of the end. Freedom dies to thunderous applause. May karma hit truedoh and his fascist friends hard.

Can you explain how banning guns will take them off the streets but at the same time legalizing drugs will take them of the street?

So, native indigenous people in Canada can’t sell their fathers gun to a child

Communism at its best!

Finally, someone got balls against the gun industry!

So the only one that is going to have handguns are the criminals that Trudeau let’s go

Only applies to legal firearms owners, criminals can still get one in less than 20 minutes probably going for around 5k for a 9mm now. 4 shootings since this decree, not a single one was committed by a legal owner. Fun fact all guns in Canada are banned unless you have a license

Communists gonna communist.

It doesn’t take fuckin handguns for murder, suicide, etc. The latest mass killing in 🇨🇦 involved a knife.

Canada's new national symbol...the crossbow.

'My general constituency is the problem, and I shall ensure that their rights are all stripped from them by govt fiat. They cannot be permitted to have a handgun.' -Trudeau

Seems pretty fascist!

StopHazaraGenocide

As a Canadian I LOVE this. I'm not interested in the crazy USA gun culture seeping over our border like toxic sludge. 🤮🤮🤮

We need that in US pronto!!

Think.

Black market handgun price in Canada just went UP

JustinTrudeau liberal_party you can bet he wouldn’t take these measures if he was a shareholder like with his pharma portfolio?!😉

Verjaardag very well

I heard Democracy was in peril because of truckers honking their horns.

Hitler likes this post.

I miss Canada, where most people are sane.

And that’s why we have a second amendment. Our forefathers knew guys like this would come along. I hope this goes really sideways for him.

Now there's a leader with GUTS....it's a shame we don't have one like that here in America

Totalitarianism

And his country is okay with that?

A sign the government is not concerned about external enemies, but thinks it has serious enemies within.

Criminals will be so disappointed.

Just like Daddy!!!!

Its literally that easy. JoeBiden POTUS

I would be interested in seeing any evidence that this is an issue that needed to be addressed. How many crimes are committed with legal firearms, nevertheless legally obtained handguns?

Well, we all know the best way to get rid of tyrants.

Canadiens will cross the border and buy them as they always have.

this would be the US if we didn’t have a constitution & Republicans. Canada at the mercy of a dictator.

Fascist canadian prime minister. Fixed your headline.

How appropriate for Castreaux Jr.

It's all about the itching authoritarian urge. Justin Trudeau is missing the point trying to solve a problem that doesn't exist. Here's the issue in USA:

This is a perfect example of Plantation mindset burned into the minds & hearts of Voters to elect political slavery, oppression & loss of free will from the devil they know rather than choosing freedom & independence & the risk that comes w/ courtesy toward others. VOTE JT OUT!

Hopefully he doesn't forget the knives, after that mass killing with knives he better take those away too.

Our Great Canadian dictator.

Hey, neighbor, can we get that?!

Racism at work ! Thank the maker I don’t live in canada.

We need this here in America.

Hope this evil man is somehow taken down

just to distract from all of his other failures

Just like all the other fascists.

Canada hates freedom

Oh hell naw

Just like Hitler did. Where are the left’s comparisons to Hitler?

Clear violation of their 2nd amendment rights

Citizens beware...

America: Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Canada: Peace, order and good government

'When people are being killed, when people are being hurt, responsible leadership requires us to act,'.... It'll be interesting when confiscations start and how that looks. I'm no gun nut, I don't own any.. but this is an interesting way for a democracy to act.

Thought they weren't allowed already.

Likely causing a 50% jump in US gun sales.

Authoritarian

🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡

He knows, rightfully, that all guns in that Country will be pointed at him soon. And deservedly.

Dictators gonna dictate.

True North strong and free....not really

Communist Canada lmao

Thank God I don't live in that shit hole.

Crime is over!

Idiots

Glad someone finally did too

See we have to be so careful here,next they will try and confiscate the guns people have , this admin would love to do the same, look at NY still trying to circumvent recent SCOTUS rulings

This does nothing to help against illegal gun and gun crime in Canada. Moronic move by the government, and they expect a pat on the back for this. Absolutely embarrassing.

Just bad, bad wrongheaded policy In one fell fascist swoop he’s unilaterally done his best to criminalize the law abiding, while giving criminals and black markets a monopoly on pistol sales

Take away the weapons that 💩 boy JustinTrudeau has protecting him. Take away his private security and their weapons too. Fair is fair

This is scary I feel for Canadians no way to protect themselves against their on government or intruders. What’s up genocide or a round up of unhappy people to be executed. This is not a good sign of anything.

100% support!

A pandering move that will stop zero crime and it only cost his law abiding citizens their rights. Keep that nonsense up north.

If only they could ban winter lol

Oh look common sense. Meanwhile, America is filled with gun nuts who worship weapons of war and are totally ok with daily mass murders because being able to murder is called a “freedom.”

Coming soon to an america near you..

This does not apply to criminals

Good

He knows what’s coming 😂🤣💀

like he wasn't sexy enough.

During Hunting season?

It begins.

Justin Trudeau is what real leadership looks like. Leaders protect their people from harm. Guns harm people. It's that simple.

Are there any men left in Canada?

Just like his dad would do… his real dad.

Smart man

So by definition he has created a dictatorship in Canada

It’s time for the Canadian people to revolt.

KaivanShroff Oh myyyyyyyy…..

That won’t stop criminals getting guns though.

This doesn’t do a damn thing! He needs to ban ALL guns PERIOD!

Excellent

More power to JustinTrudeau

And there were 3 shootings almost immediately after ... Virtue signalling at BEST, vote buying more likely. Useless measure.

Canada is now on a full blown path to communism all thanks to medical tyranny through Covid.

It's okay because criminals are still going to use illegally acquired weapons to kill people. While US law abiding gun owners continue to safely use our weapons as we always have until this unnecessarily law gets reversed🤔

One person has that authority in Canada? Scary. I thought they had a constitutional process. If one person has universal control on any issue, as much as I may agree or disagree on any specific issue, that’s a dictatorship not a democracy.

Can Canada buy some of America?

Douchbag

Can he legally do this?

Canada can do it. We can too.

….I mean it worked for drugs…amirite?

Love this guy! Trudeau

Thank you again Justin.

If is starting immediately but will not be effective😁

The Communist Democrat Politicans want to do the same thing in the United States.

Real dictator shit

Great idea!!

Of course, disarm the people, unfortunately for you NPR cucks, WE have the Constitution...

Self protection is so important to the elite arrogant pardon the expression leaders.

Just made a bunch Criminals the only stores Around

Beta male, tiny-king monarch of Canada.

YES! IStandWithTrudeau

Why can´t the U.S. take a similar move to stop the killing spree?

Relax folks. We're still mailing away anti-tank weapons to anyone who can say, or spell, the word 'democracy'

He can just do that. Canada is a banana republic.

Finally, someone takes a stand!

w

Canada is such a pathetic welfare state. Souless, socialist wasteland completely cucked by China.

Maybe we should cancel this movie

young castro

Up yours Justin Trudeau!

A dictator says what?

👏👏👏🇨🇦 rocks.

Fascism at its finest.

He also mandated a vaccine to stop the spread of a virus. Now we learn from Pfizer, it was never tested to prevent transmission of the virus. Do the truckers whose money he confiscated get it back?!He's a dangerous dictator.

despicable tyrant

A dictatorship now on our border.

This would work in the US 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 oh wait, forgot that criminals don't follow laws. Nevermind it won't work in the US.

Living in Canada would suck, living in Canada as a slave must really suck.

Ever wonder why liberals don't like to focus on mental health? Hmmm....

Canadians will bend the knee

Good job Canada. Doing what the US fails to do. itstheguns

Is Canada having the same problems as the USA? Are there constant school shootings? This is a dangerous precedent against personal protection. This isn't a 'win' Ohh Canada. SMH.

That's how it's done. Examine the problem and what can be done. Some guns & gun sales can be reinstated. It's better to do something than nothing.

That will do nothing

Nice! And what eyelashes that Trudeau has.

Nice

Trudeau is a Communist, and so is NPR. Defund NPR!

Here in Europe we enjoy AK-47 and M16 guns, even some miniguns, and kill everyone we see on the streets.

The Trudeau dictatorship!!! Canadians, wake up before your new dictator turns your country, founded on the principles of freedom into a third world banana like country!!!

So let me get this straight. JustinTrudeau just says things and they then become law? What type of political system do you have in Canada

Tyrant. Sic temper tyranus.

communism, one elected official acting outside of parliament can be one thing

Christ. This is a gift from heaven for surging Republicans headed into November.

This will do absolutely nothing to slow or stop gun crimes, if anything they will increase gun violence. The balcony market is rejoicing right now.

This guy is a completely lawless power maniac. What on Earth have Canada done actually electing this guy?

Why not toughen penalty for use if not justified?

Remember … all weapons are used for assault.

There are people who make changes then there are those who make excuses constantly why not to try change. Thank you Justin for not being afraid to try this bold change to try and protect us from ever having to witness our children dying in schools.

that’s gonna work lol

Would love to be a gun dealer in Detroit.

Freeze? It's a ban. Lame attempt at sugarcoating a facist.

Justin Trudeau for President of the United States. Effective immediately.

Great, now only criminals will trade and distribute them.

There were 875 gun deaths in Canada in 2022, so far. In the United States there are over 42,000 gun deaths. Republicans in the U.S. promote not restrict gun violence in our society and schools. Canada values human life over the fake reason of right to possess firearms.

Those who melt the guns into plows will plow for those who don't.

Step 1 in total control

He's following in big footsteps, Mao and Lenin would be proud!

The only civilized country in North America...

What a dictator looks like.

Leading by example. Well done Northern Neighbors. Wish America would follow suit.

Is this in response to the mass stabbing event in Saskatchewan?

Who gives a fuck. It’s Canada

What happens when the owner dies? It's got to go somewhere. Lol

Will do nothing for crime but will leave the good citizens of Canada helpless. Gun control is a fallacy that only protects the criminals. God help Canada

How many people have been killed in Canada with legal handguns? Do you know how difficult it is to get a legal handgun in canada already? This will do nothing to stop violence, and they know that.

TrudeauMustGoNow

quinnrob76 When does he freeze the bank accounts? Is that the next step or is there something else in between?

Tyrant.

Doesn't do anything to stop illegal guns. All this does is stop law abiding people from buying legal and registered handguns.

Sounds about right.

Take away guns=eliminates gun related crime/death BS. Black market will never be shut down

Bet it makes very little difference to the criminals

I thought they already did that years ago.

Dictatorship in Canada !

i thought the only guns you could have there were hunting rifles.

Guns are for pussies anyways. Pick up a long sword and fight your enemies up close, like a real man. My sword of choice is the Ulfberht.

Mao, Hitler and the other gun grabbing murderous tyrants would be very proud of PM blackface

Yikes, looks I have to buy a couple more glocks

He's not aging well. I guess demonic possession tends to do that. Lol. Nazi.

This is good, because criminals follow laws like this.

If you live in Canada and you wanted to own a handgun for the sole purpose of going to a shooting range to fire a handgun, you would have owned one already. So handgun owners still have their guns, case closed.

Welcome to Communist Canada!

LOL, clapping for a Tyrant. 😅🤡

Great idea. What could go wrong?

If you are going to live in a Banana Republic, you should at least be afforded the tropical beaches and views. 🌴 🌊

He ain’t getting re-elected. He just done torpedoed any hope of that.

You left out the word: legally

I’m sure that will work.

Mr. Trudeau is getting pilloried in the press/MSM for his alliance/allegiance with Big Oil & Gas, which kills thousands of Canadians annually, via air pollution. So what better distraction than gun control… a worthy endeavor, but he banned assault rifles a long time ago.

In his neighborhood in the USA, unfortunately, they don't get the logic, that unrestricted sales bring dead as easy as a farting momentum

That order is only effective on law biding citizens. Criminals will continue to find ways to sell and buy guns…i.e business as usual. Laws do no stop crime and the enforcement of them only deter some. Why? Punishment for most atrocities committed using guns rarely fit the crimes

Not a free country

Disgusting tyrant.

He did it because he is a communist dictator. I thank God that I don't live there. commie 2A

If you nutters ever wondered would you support the Nazis if you'd lived in Germany, wonder no longer.. the answer is.. YES you'd be a brown shirt!

i can’t wait for the cheesy dictator memes to start flowing

Thank God for the Second Amendment

King George III approves this message.

Betting the criminals will still have their guns. Any bets?

It's called communism.

Canada USA

The dark Web is about to crash in Canada.

no 2A in Canada

Nice. This means no more illegal handguns will come across the border. Goodbye gang violence in canada.

Fascist scum

You up yet Canadians?

Not democratically voted he just ordered this change?

So did all fascist governments in history.

bfs2020 Bravo!

Canada is a soft country. Why is anyone surprised

Stupid jerk. The ones who commit the crimes aren't the responsible citizens, yet they are the ones he is punishing.

Fidel castros illegitimate son is hot af

So the Canadian constitution gives dictatorial powers to elected leaders. God bless the Founders of the USA.

Castro's son

That's it. I'm moving.

What bullets do to bodies. Get Rid of the Guns

And most Canadians agree with it.

But he's more than happy to continue allowing the fossil fuel industry to crush the rights and poison the land of of Indigenous Canadians. We've seen too many examples of big oil goons and cops bully Indigenous Canadians on their own land.

Could we more civilized like Canada? PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!

White Canadians have very soft and vulnerable underbellys. Consequently, they are Very easy to conquer and enslave.

Not one weapon confiscated, yet MAGA Twitter is screaming 'they're coming for the guns!'

Has Canada disbanded its parliament?

AKA: Blackface Fascist takes steps toward the elimination of the rights of women and minorities to defend themselves from his racist and classist policies violating body autonomy.

Hallelujah! Exactly what needs to be done in our country!!

An act of tyranny.

Unless he also cut off the internet, anyone can still 3d print a firearm.

So gun crime is over in Canda. Cool

Why didn’t he use his super powers to freeze crime and put a halt to murder?

Crazy that a country with a 16th century monarchy could figure this out before a full-fledged “democracy”… It’s like… money runs us?… Cough cough

Why should this guy be able to tell people what they can or cannot buy and sell?

Wish I lived in Canada!

Keeping Canadians safe , America could learn a thing or two from us

Trudeau is like a Hitler if anyone is.

He is a Facist.

Totalitarianism north of the border. No thanks.

Looks like inflation is out of control in Canada 🍁

I will not vote for anyone who does not immediately repeal these changes once elected.

JustinTrudeau would be better off trying to control ammunition, like requiring a license to purchase, manufacture, sell, or transfer ammunition.

I love him

So there’s no resistance when China comes a knockin for the WEF. If anyone watched the Redacted episode from last night, this should terrify you.

Also notable that it’s mostly Americans in the comments complaining. If I had to take a guess, I would say many (maybe even a majority of) Canadians probably support this

Fascist just doing what fascist's do.

Why can't we get there too?

And that’s why parents go to sleep happy at night... and send their kids off to school without bullet proof backpacks

While I don’t necessarily support something like this in the United States, I will say, it’s a much more effective way of controlling guns than any other thing that we’ve done in the US Problem is, it fulfills the conservative narrative of “they want to take our guns”

Now the northern border is going to be overrun with illegal aliens from Canada fleeing the Marxist rule of Trudeau. Good grief!

Spelled Trudeau but pronounced TYRANT

If only the gun lobby in the US wasn’t so powerful…

This Canadian is 100% in support of this.

Strategic move

🇨🇦 Two Canadians shot each other to death the other day in Ottawa, eh ?

He needs to put a nationwide freeze on crime!

when guns are outlawed, only outlaws have guns I'll be with the outlaws, safe and secure

This is the guy who wasn’t letting truckers in/out of Canada without a vaccine. Froze peoples bank accounts. Cancelled their insurance? He is a tyrant. Dangerous man

Thank you. About time.

bfs2020 Outstanding.

First the masks and COVID shots then guns we all know what is next

Dear American cousins, never give up your 2nd ammendment rights. --- A Canadian gun owner.

What's a handgun?

Authoritarian dictator...vote this scumbag out

Lawless Dictator

The ban of legal handgun ownership does not solve any crime issue. Justin is lying.

Communist

Y'all need to overthrow JustinTrudeau the 🤡 dictator. Canadians need to stand up to this nonsense and not let stutter boy get away with this.

Thank you!

Remember when Venezuela was a Democracy? Then they banned firearms How did that work out for them?

Next will be forced confiscation by secret police and segregation by religion

Watching the unhinged downstairs neighbor go into meltdowns has really helped Canada do better.

There were no crimes committed this year in ON this year with legally purchased handguns. This is a political stunt only. Crime will not stop, because they do nothing regarding illegal guns that are poured into the country. But dems go awwww

Hitler Jr.

I hope to see the same in USA, someday.

Fabulous, let Trudeau take away all citizens guns, then the US can take over Canada. I'm sick of these liberal countries relying on our military to protect them as they oppress their citizens. If Canada was geographically near China/Russia they would never do this.

Commies gonna Commie

Don’t submit.

Assault rifles, yes. But handguns? This surprised me

Going around proper channels and overreach just like he he did with the emergencies act.

😮🫢☺️

Even though you’re more likely to be killed by lightning in Canada than by a legal gun owner and their registered handgun. Weird how suddenly science, facts and data don’t matter when you have an emotional wedge issue to politicize.

‘We shall freeze the weapons!’

YES!

Oooooh. He is not going to get re-elected, this pretty boy of a PM.

Nice!

Good

My protection, my choice

Blackface Hitler gonna Hitler, yo.

Good little NAZI isn’t he.

kbeninato I'm a pretty old Canadian, & I have to say I don't know anyone who has even considered EVER buying a handgun. I'm not talking hunters, or farmer/ranchers with long guns & licenses. We don't have that fear of being shot here in Canada. Nor when I lived in Australia, nor England

Wow like an actual nazi dictator

Hero

Commie bastard!

So wish he was in the US!

Castro jr

Solving a non problem. If there is a problem in canada it is the illegals guns which probably are involved in most of the criminal activity...

Trudeau comunista

All of you complaining about loss of freedom have it all wrong…no guns on the streets mean freedom to say what you want, when you want and/or go anywhere you want without getting shot. That’s freedom!

Tyranny

This guy is an effiminate clown.

When did JustinTrudeau get elected king?

Fellow travelers.

Don't be like China! Canada is a liberal democracy! The people have the right to decide whether to buy or sell handguns for themselves!

I agree with this. Rifles and shotguns are necessary tools, but handguns are just weapons of murder.

Dictator

As a liberal, this is nonsense. You can never regulate weapons that don't have serial numbers.

FUTURE HEADLINE =Recently elected Canadian Prime Minister Pierre Poilievre is placing a nationwide freeze on printing fiat money within Canada – protecting the people of 🇨🇦 & preventing the Central Bank dilute the wealth of the people his administration was elected to represent.

For criminals too?

Goodbye Canada it was nice knowing ya.

Communist leader of Canada. It is up to Canadians now to overthrow this tyrant.

Welcome, my Canadian brothers and sisters.

Another lefty dictator

When did canada become totalitarian? Smh. This awful, rights they will never get back.

Tell us more about fascism

I’d be terrified if I was a Canadian citizen… This is all for a reason and something is happening.

Who needs guns when the Canadian health care system will help you kill yourself with their MAID (medical assistance in dying) program. America might be a 💩 show right now, but I’m glad we aren’t quite that far down the crapper yet.

Good for him!

But guess what the people that are guarding little precious Trudeau are carrying. GUNS!!

Thank God the US is not Canada. Imagine the government “pausing” a constitutional right protected by the 2nd amendment. Or any amendment for that matter. Trudeau is a total clown show.

didn't he already do this?

First step of any communist country

There aren't a lot of black people in Canada, I don't feel this is necessary.

Christmas came early fir Canada

I love my country, but I have to say Canada’s action today to stop gun violence shows ballsy leadership.

Idoit

Communist?

Hey does this magically remove the guns already in criminal hands?

Good.

It's almost the end of October everything starts to freeze in Canada anyway.

Did something happen in untouchable Canada?

irishspy Metrosexual tyranny is the best tyranny.

Western foreign policy involves arming allies and disarming opponents. In completely unrelated news the Canadian government is taking additional steps to disarm their own citizens. Twitter cheers.

Canada has really been going through it these past few years. Anybody who has ever read a history book knows how this ends.

So, essentially, Canada owns its citizens now.

papa Fidel would be so proud

If someone is going to use a firearm to harm someone, they are still going to find a way to get it. All you are doing is stopping people from being able to defend themselves.

When only the government has guns.

Communism right here

I'm glad someone has the 'Balls' to do it.

It's a good thing and, I'm a gun owner.

And in other news, Canada to defang and deantler their prey species in a bid to discourage predators from hunting them. The predators lined up in neat rows to also give up their tooth, and claws promising to turn a leaf and become vegetarian.

So that only the state has the power to murder people. What could go wrong. Historically government has usually been good, right?

Dictator

When a single politician can do this unilaterally you can’t possibly call yourself a free country.

smart move.

Now watch Canada's crime rate increase.

He just created a black market for unregistered and unregulated handguns. Buckle up Canada.

What an authoritarian.

Disarming of the public leads to Tyranny

Criminals are laughing at Trudeau right now 🤣

IMO…He made a BIG MISTAKE. Nice folks buy gun legally; BAD GUYS can get any guns in the BLACK MARKET. Consequently, nice folks cannot defend themselves… Think deeply & have brainstorming session before making DECISION(S).

Take that criminals! 🥴

God bless America.

jedimarkus77 Imagine celebrating taking freedoms away while condemning Iran’s Gov for taking freedoms away. Little by little… tick…tock…

I expect to be proven wrong, but I'm going to go out on a limb and say that handguns were already banned and he's posturing like usual.

Why?

severuduw Country goals. Go Canada!

He will not serve another term. This is a very bad decision.

Trudaeu doesn't want the citizens to rise up against the chinese when they come through canada, Trudaeu already had let them go training in canada, he would probably let them set up in there in event of a world conflict. He is a traitor to his people and idolizes the chinese gov.

Enjoy your current & future dictators Canada. ✌🏿

Finally common sense and balls.

FJT

😬

Common sense…

Nice! Great way to boost the underground arms market. What a big brain. The guns the people have left will be used I'm sure, who could have seen it coming.

It’ll be a whole lot easier to line up those pesky defectors of the government when they can’t defend themselves.

Well, there’s at least one country in North America that seems to get it.

*cries in Missouri*

Wow, this is how you protect your country as a leader

AK & AR sales to Canadians will skyrocket.

But not knives, scissors, swords, corkscrews, vans and suvs, or strong people who can choke others out?

...and the vast majority supports him.

Castro Jr. at it again. God Bless America and our Bill of Rights

time4kind

If it wasn’t so cold I’d come for you Canada, oh Canada!

I'm very much in favor of sensible gun control legislation here in the US given our high murder rate, but for Canada this appears to be a solution in search of a problem.

What a fvcking biatch

DavidHamer_1951 It was not immediate, the bill was announced in May/22 and it is a positive stop to stop the murder of police officers.

Is he sure that they will freeze ALL sales of handguns, even the illegal ones?

Trudeau really likes to end businesses.TrudeauMustGoToJail TrudeauCorruption TrudeauMustGoNow

He is a pretty good dictator. No need for legislation, the great poobah just issues edicts.

GFY CANADA! 😂😂😂😂😂

The 12% of Canadians that own handguns, but we’re only allowed to b-line to gun range, must be annoyed. The other 88% that didn’t? I’m guessing they feel a bit safer.

Should be done globally.

The apple doesn't fall far from the tree,just like daddy.

Time to invade 👿

time4kind Yay!’nn

Dictator gonna dictate.

It's just 'common sense' lol

Another guy that wants to be a communist dictator

Wonderful for authoritarians, awful for fans of human rights

To stop the killing you have to start somewhere, and this is a good start.

This is how easy it shld be to StopGunViolence

Hahaha the only ones with guns will be the ones invading your home. Good luck
