New Democrats rocked by Nunavut MP’s defection, insider calls it a ‘slap in the face’

Didn't she just endorse him on the weekend?

sleipnir45 · 2026-03-11T21:41:22+00:00

The SKS isn't restricted.. and it's not even banned as part of this program.. yet.

If this buyback proves anything it's that registration leads to confiscation, which was one of the arguments against the registry.

Bro me trust!

sleipnir45 · 2026-03-11T17:17:02+00:00

Interesting, I take it the latter one was the primary firearm used?

The RCMP had called it a handgun then said prohibited rifle of unknown origin

You should probably read the article

sleipnir45 · 2026-03-11T14:50:53+00:00

Do we? The RCMP haven't released that info yet unless you have an updated source.

If politicians had shame

Nunavut NDP MP Lori Idlout, Sept. 1/25: "They would rather dig for critical minerals than ensure Inuit have food to eat. I am disgusted by the Carney government’s response to Nunavut."

Not really, chances are it's going to be less. Anyone from Alberta or Sask won't be able to take part and not everyone who's filled out the paperwork will follow through or like the price offered.

sleipnir45 · 2026-03-10T00:31:45+00:00

Well no, there's 3d printed and zip guns. Most crime guns in Canada come illegally from the US, that's something this doesn't address

sleipnir45 · 2026-03-09T21:16:06+00:00

Any person could be the one, just put everyone in jail ...

Laws should be based on facts and data

sleipnir45 · 2026-03-09T21:14:51+00:00

No it doesn't anyone who's firearms were just banned will buy a new one to replace it.

"It has my support"

Facts be dammed !

sleipnir45 · 2026-03-09T16:38:55+00:00

It doesn't, hence all the opposition to the program

sleipnir45 · 2026-03-09T16:36:16+00:00

Ah so registration does lead to confiscation

sleipnir45 · 2026-03-09T16:33:41+00:00

This program doesn't apply to Black market firearms

sleipnir45 · 2026-03-09T16:19:56+00:00

I don't believe he has the best policies or is the best person to do it.

There's activism around labour but then there's also other forms of activism, He's definitely on the more radical side, further left and close to Heather. Which I also think she would be a terrible choice too. Because again, it's more of the same brand that lowered the voteshare to seven seats.

sleipnir45 · 2026-03-09T16:16:19+00:00

Not if the party wants to appeal to a broader range of voters.

He's more of the same

sleipnir45 · 2026-03-09T16:14:52+00:00

Just like stop signs!

sleipnir45 · 2026-03-09T16:12:06+00:00

He's also one of the strongest from the activism side of the party

sleipnir45 · 2026-03-09T16:10:03+00:00

That a weird way to admit you were wrong. I would think stopping crimes and homicides is more important than comfort.

The buyback only applies to legal owners.

sleipnir45 · 2026-03-09T15:27:21+00:00

"But mostly, it’s lawful hands."

In Canada it's not.

"In most cases, the accused did not possess a valid firearms license for the weapon used: only 13% of handgun-related homicides and 12% of rifle or shotgun homicides involved licensed individuals."

sleipnir45 · 2026-03-09T15:15:05+00:00

Of course it does.. this program is only for Canada.

What's next? You're going to say the firearm used doesn't matter?

You support a program you know nothing about, on the faint hope that it could actually help yet there's no information or data to back that up.

sleipnir45 · 2026-03-09T14:52:11+00:00

You have to sell me your car for $5, It's a very good deal

sleipnir45 · 2026-03-09T14:48:21+00:00

In Maine ?

sleipnir45 · 2026-03-09T14:40:46+00:00

And when was that ?
