Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says the federal government is “listening to feedback” from firearms owners about amendments to proposed gun-control legislation that would place a federal ban on an additional 300 to 400 firearms in addition to the 1,500 already illegalized in May 2020.
“We’ve just put forward a list and we’re consulting with Canadians on that,” Trudeau said during a press conference in Ingersoll, Ont., on Dec. 5, while referring to the list of guns the Liberal government is proposing to ban through amendments to Bill C-21.
