The federal government has announced another extension of the amnesty on what it calls “assault-style” firearms prohibited in 2020. The extension will be in effect until after the next federal election.
In a website update from Canada Public Safety on Oct. 22, Ottawa said that the current Amnesty Order which was scheduled to expire on Oct. 30 will now be extended by an additional two years, until Oct. 30, 2025. The next federal election must be held by Oct. 20, 2025, although it can be called earlier.
