    It is time to identify the most anti gun media, and target their advertisers. Anti gun = anti profits.

    This is a good idea. Licensed owners are 2.2 million, actual number is of course more. So 1/17 of the kanadian population, all adults, with disposable income.

    The practical reality is that many gun owners are unaware, and as a whole trying to unite them to any one action is like herding cats.
    A free society must outlaw harming innocent people to function, but when we seek to curtail what all of us can do, rather than holding each of us responsible for what we actually do, we give up on freedom itself.

    So why don't we form a sticky list of all anti gun companies and their subsidiaries? Would be highly educational and give a clear light on who the opposition is.

    An excellent opinion-piece by a doctor who attended on the victims of the École Polytechnique shooting:

    This is great news - I hope this changes the focus from gun bans to law enforcement
    What's all the gun control fuss about - I'm just punching holes in paper

    You should probably link to the source. I try to avoid 2nd hand interpretations of source material, especially since media tends to reduce them to out-of-context soundbites or clickbait headlines.

    Any study or engagement using public funds are generally available.

    The Liberals don't use democracy to make any other decisions, otherwise I wouldn't be paying carbon tax right now. What makes anyone think that they will with guns? The "right thing to do", the right thing to do would be to listen to the citizens of you country and drop the whole idiotic gun grabbing thing.

    They should be concentrating on not losing the next election, not stealing my guns, or is this the last shot over the bow because they already know the ship is sinking? Unfortunately I can't understand the mindset that wants to strip people of their freedoms, so I can't say.
    I like guns....

    I see that over 100,000 gun owners did the survey but only 768 people spent the extra 15 minutes to write an email.

    We need to do better people!
