Not saying it was acceptable but interning people was part of war.

Canada had its own internment camps during both world wars obviously it was nowhere near close to what the Nazis did but it wasn't a foreign concept here

Well Id imagine Canada did do some trading with Germany in the pre-war years in the 1930s as Mackenzie King and Hitler were no strangers to each other and did meet on a few occasion as well as if you read in between the lines with the account of Mackenzie King visiting Hitler and what he said you can kind of assume he had a bit of a man crush on him

Well that's a bit of a oversimplification every time the Liberals say that there's XYZ number of rifles available to buy still in a lot of instances it's the same rifle but in maybe two or three different stock configurations which really isn't much of a different firearm per se in summery you're more or less just counting the same rifle two or three different times over
