The chaos of music in the 90's | SaltWireA Federal Court judge has dismissed a challenge to a 2020 order-in-council that outlawed over 1,500 firearm models , ending a three-year court battle led by a coalition of plaintiffs, including Canada’s leading firearms advocacy group. The 2020 directive instantly — without passing legislation in Parliament — reclassified around 1,500 popular firearms to prohibited status , including those described as so-called “military-style” or “assault” firearms. CCFR CEO Rod Giltaca expressed dismay over Monday’s decision. In 2021, the government’s decision to move ahead with a voluntary, rather than mandatory, gun buy-back prompted PolySeSouvient to publicly disinvite Trudeau from future École Polytechnique shooting memorials. Mauser said Monday’s decision seriously undermines hunting, sport shooting and environmental protection in Canada.
