I'm sorry, but "It's too hard to do from an administrative point of view" isn't much of an argument.

The Liberals have already said they would fix legislation to allow municipal governments to implement handgun bans, because the provinces can't be trusted to do it (too many conservatives) and the hippy-dippy mayors will do just about anything.

The real question is off-site storage. If the mayor of Toronto or Montreal bands handguns, can we store them outside city limits, possibly in a safe deposit box at a bank? I don't want to sell my collection at a loss.

It’s my understanding that that is well outside the purview of the Feds. Cities are under provincial jurisdiction.
 
I'm wondering if there will be confiscations of firearms. Could I apply for my tax return for what I payed for firearm and I still have receipt available.. ??
 
Interesting looking at the date the thread was started and how pertinent it is today. The possibly misleading aspect of the whole premise put forward is looking back at the 90's and how easy it was to completely ban hundreds of firearms legally purchased, with no compensation to the owners. OIC's definitely worked then, and Im not sure why they wouldn't work now. No letters were sent out because they did not know who owned them. You just turned them in with no compensation. That is the reality of OIC's.

Plus now, add to the mix, municipalities getting to decide whatever they want. How does that even happen ? Don't think for a minute they haven't thought of the potential court challenges or legal ramifications of municipalities creating rules under federal jurisdiction. Shiitt show for sure.

Slow down. The passing of laws and regs that banned guns was easy. You will note that there is no evidence that any of the millions of affected firearms were ever seized. And the prisons arent stuffed to the rafters with the millions of gun owners who didnt comply.

The only reason why you think the gun bans under C68 was easy is because gun owners simply pretended it didnt happen and the government pretended it did.

My point was that is is very easy to enact orders banning whatever firearms the government wants. It does not get tied up for years in legal wrangling or appeals. It just happens. Its not a guarantee that anyone will comply with the laws, but I do know a lot of people who did turn in affected firearms. The OIC's can and will be easily passed if that's the route they choose.

All municipalities can do is fine you. They'll only do this if you're being a d*ck with your guns -- after all, how will they know who has them?
