Polytechnique shooting survivor objects to firearm coalition’s ‘disrespectful’ sales promotion
“We want a reduction to crime, violence and gun smuggling — they want a reduction in legal gun ownership,” Wilson said.
Provost said that as the anniversary approaches, PolySeSouvient is particularly focused on the gun file as MPs study a government bill that would enshrine a definition of prohibited assault-style firearms, a ban for which the group has been fighting for 33 years. The coalition for firearm rights and Conservative MPs have denounced the move as an attack on law-abiding, licensed gun owners.
The coalition said this week the government’s ultimate goal is to ban all civilian ownership of firearms in Canada.Asked about the coalition’s merchandise promotion Friday, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau underscored his government’s gun-control plans.“Unfortunately, we see the gun lobby working with the Conservative Party of Canada to spread misinformation, to use fear, to sow division by trying to mislead Canadians,” Trudeau said at an event in British Columbia.
“While we will always respect the rights of law-abiding hunters and farmers to use shotguns and rifles, there are certain guns that have no place in our communities, no place anywhere in Canada.”
