I don't know if you folks down South have heard anything about it but last week the second reading of Bill C391 passed by 27 votes in the House of Commons.
This bill should finally repeal the long gun registry and leave only hand guns, restricted rifles (AR15 and short barreled semi's) and grandfathered prohibited guns (AK, FAL, small pistols etc.) registered.
This is a huge win for the will of the people, as the "pro-gun" Conservative party currently holds a minority government, so MPs from the notoriously "anti-gun" Liberal and NDP parties had to vote in favor of the bill in order for it to pass.

There's still a long way to go towards sane gun laws but this is the first win in a LONG LONG time (if ever).

This is good news for you guys! I'm glad for you.
Inside each knife is a new adventure waiting to be had...maybe some blood and probably some suture.
