Add Your Name: A Ban on Assault-Style Weapons in Canada
Because of gun violence, too many Canadians are dying, families are grieving, and communities are suffering. It must end — and that’s why Justin Trudeau and the Liberal government are announcing an immediate ban on assault-style weapons in Canada.
As the Prime Minister said, assault-style firearms designed for military use have no place in Canada. By removing them from our streets, we will limit the devastating effects of gun-related violence and help make our country safer.
