I'd be against it too, if I were Canadian. I like the idea solely out of self-interest; it would provide a way for me to escape the madhouse and move to a civilized country. I realize the entire continent might become a madhouse, but I figure Canadian weather would keep most of the crazies from moving there, so it would still be a place of relative sanity.I am not in favor of a North American Union under any conditions. There is no way I would be willing to gamble on sovereignty issues to help out ill-fated economies that are run by respected buffoons.
Canada is wicked, man. It's like the USA but without the gun crime and the idiots.
From what I can see, on Canadian Gun Laws , there doesn't seem to be any bar on ownership of firearms. Licensing, yes, but no bar to ownership.Or, without ability to defend yourself in case an idiot does come. If Canada can deal with our 2nd amendment, I'll let them in. How's that for a litmus test?
You need a license, and you have to register your firearms, which I'm sure would freak a lot of American gun nuts right out.From what I can see, on Canadian Gun Laws , there doesn't seem to be any bar on ownership of firearms. Licensing, yes, but no bar to ownership.
I did not look into regulations of specific firearm types, however.
My granduncle always carried a pistol in his pocket, and I've recently learned that my brother carries a very small one in his. I'd be afraid I'd reach for some change and shoot myself in the foot.Long guns like rifles and shotguns are fairly easy to obtain, but handguns are very restricted. You generally have to demonstrate a strong legitimate need (e.g. being a cop or an armoured car driver) before you can get a handgun permit.
Concealed carry is virtually unheard-of.
