Nothing new to Canada. Being in the firearm industry since 1985, seen and read about all kinds of stupid laws, but I always thought, this one takes the cake. 1989, a Marc Lupine went into a Montreal nursing school, and killed 14 girls, and himself!(YEA) Now, because he used a semi auto, one of the first bans on guns in Canada was enacted. When deciding what guns to ban, they put a bunch of guns on display, bought in some women's groups, political activists, whatever. Uzi, Ar-15, several other's, banned. One that didn't get banned, Ruger Mini-14. Reason- It doesn't look nasty! Give 'ya one guess what kind of gun Lupine used, and 'ya only get 1 guess!!
