Great News, UN Marking Has Been Deferred to December 1st, 2018!

Call me a cynic but I think the gov't simply wasn't ready to implement it. We aren't their voter base and could care less what we think.

I think the first part of your comment has some validity, but I also think that the firearms community is starting to make enough noise that politicians are starting to listen.

The pathological Canadian apathy and eternal pessimism are 2 constants that keep dragging us down.

The petitions got the point across to the Liberals that there are a lot of gun owners paying attention to what they do and they threw us a bone.

a great first step. Apparently if as a community we complain loud enough and long enough it works. But how do we squash this in its entirety? Deferral is only a chance to give us some breathing room, its far from a win.

Harper didn't repeal the un marking legislation or the c68 firearms act because he wanted to hold them over our heads as extortion for our support.
If we stayed obedient little puppies we'd get fed more scraps from the table a little bit at a time.

Wow!! Great news!

I'll call it good news. "Great" news will be when PM Castreau's political career chokes to death trying to swallow one of his lies.

Awesome

Maybe they'll do like the tories did and keep kicking it down the road until it becomes someone else's problem...

Not quite a win, but as long as that goes on, we haven't lost.

Amazing!

Great news for buyers bad news for vendors because now they have to find another excuse to jack up prices by 50%
