Saskatchewan passed a Firearms Act on Thursday in an attempt to protect legal gun owners from the Trudeau Liberals’ gun grab agenda.
Premier Scott Moe said the Act is in direct response to the federal government’s gun-grab legislation.
“It’s a responsive act,” Moe said.
“And it’s an act that will work quite well in protecting those law-abiding firearm owners in our province.”
The Act is passed just two months after The Trudeau Liberals withdrew the controversial amendments to the gun grab Bill C-21.
Moe added, “We feel the federal government is approaching this in the wrong way. They’re going after law-abiding firearm owners.”
Last month, Alberta created its own Firearms Act which passed third reading on March 22. Both Acts are direct responses to the federal gun grab agenda.
In 2020, the Trudeau Liberals banned 1,500 different assault-style firearms, making an estimated 125,000 legally-purchased guns criminalized.
The 2020 firearms ban came just weeks after the Nova Scotia mass shooting. Gabriel Wortman massacred 22 people in Nova Scotia using four illegally obtained guns, including two handguns in 2020.
Nova Scotian RCMP officers accused Lucki of pressuring them to release information during their active investigation, alleging she “promised” the Public Safety Minister she would do so, and that the information was tied to pending legislation.
Following Trudeau’s gun ban, implicated gun-owners had a two year amnesty period to hand them over. That deadline was recently extended to October 2023.
Meanwhile, on April 11, The Canadian Coalition for Firearm Rights (CCFR) will challenge the feds’ 2020 gun grab bill in the Supreme Court of Canada in what will be a nine-day hearing.
Saskatchewon’s Firearms Act will “establish licensing requirements for seizure agents involved in firearms expropriation.” It’s also meant to ensure gun-owners who are forced to hand over guns in October receive fair compensation.
