Hunters hold rally to protest Quebec long-gun registry

i think we should organize a rally all over the country

An internet rally is usually as good as it gets with gun owners ... you’re already there.

Trudeau’s home riding is in Quebec as are a few of his key ministers.

It's nice to see Quebec in the news for something positive, for a change. Although, this hasn't shown up on the mainstream news yet. I guess this whole SNC-Lavalin thing is hogging the spotlight.

Good job Quebec!

Hats off to Quebec protesters and those who have boycotted bad legislation. I think all future demonstrators should attend with a 2x4 in a locked gun case. That would certainly catch the news hounds.

Now just think if gun owners across Canada did that against bill C71

[Mac5587]

Good work Quebec!

SOrry French only..

Estimated 1.6 MILLION guns owned by Quebec residents and less than 200 manage to show up.

Those are terrible numbers guys.

This is what I hoped would happen (but didn't) when c51 was passed way back in 1977.
Canadian gun owners bent over & spread em wide and took it deep & dry without as much as a whimper.
That was the beginning of the end when we signalled loud & clear that we were really wimps to the politicians.

In 1977 I was 13 years old. I helped my Father and his friends stuff thousands of envelopes to wake up the gun owners. People had a trust for the government and felt that it would never happen. Many of our own thought we were fanatics and crazies.

Fast forward to 2019, forty years later we are still fighting this and people are still complacent. We've lost 75% of our long guns and handguns.
