Canadians, buy your guns before May 18..

New gun law goes into effect on May 18 that will make you safer!

“We are taking action to keep Canadians safe from gun violence. To that end, we are bringing into force common sense regulations that strengthen public safety through validated ownership, transparent business records keeping, and licence verification prior to purchasing a firearm. Today’s regulations under Bill C-71 will help ensure that firearms do not end up in the wrong hands, assist police in tracing guns used in crime, and are part of the broader strategy to keep communities safe.”

There you have it, just like in the USA, criminals will no longer be able to access guns, and if they do the gun will be traceable.

(that was sarcasm)
