An assault weapons ban was passed several years ago, but the outcry by a vocal minority of gun fetishists has interfered with confiscating the assault weapons already in private hands.

The Trudeau government just announced yesterday it had finalized a buy back plan and was ready to move forward with it, but I couldn’t find a date or details of the plan.

We shall see.
