On May 1, 2020 Prime Minister Trudeau announced that without a discussion, debate or vote in Parliament, the Liberals will use a procedural tactic called an order-in-council (OIC) that directs this ban from Prime Minister Trudeau’s desk through his Cabinet into law. This ban immediately makes it illegal to use 1,500 types of firearms, including over 120,000 firearms that are currently legally owned in Canada.
Please take a minute to email the Prime Minister and Minister of Public Safety, or call their offices to let them know how you feel about their unilateral actions:
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau – 613-992-4211 or justin.trudeau@parl.gc.ca
Public Safety Minister Bill Blair – 613-991-2924 or ps.ministerofpublicsafety-ministredelasecuritepublique.sp@canada.ca
And be sure to cc me at warren.steinley@parl.gc.ca when you email so I know what you said!
