The Liberal government has announced a ban of more than 300 additional makes and models of firearms, one day before the anniversary of the massacre at École Polytechnique de Montréal.
Public Safety Minister Dominic LeBlanc said on Dec. 5 that the new list of firearms is in addition to the 1,500 models banned in 2020, which he said are models that are “made for battlefields, not for hunting.” He said these additional 324 gun models were identified following consultation with experts from the RCMP.
