This is an interesting one because handguns are essentially just a hobby item in Canada. I don't think they'd do it though.
Were a full ban implemented they know where all the legal ones are supposed to be. They'd also have to resort to smuggling them across the border, which they do now of course but would have to do in larger numbers. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

Majority of gun violence gun in Toronto aren't from legally obtained guns. A blanket hand gun ban isn't going to stop gang bangers from getting their hands on them and using them.

The logic being applied here is that it would basically force them to smuggling guns across the border from the US, which these low-level gangs would have zero ability to do. That does happen now but a majority of firearms used in crime are "sourced" within Canada. Questionmarktarius posted... What's to keep everyone from murdering eachother with long guns? There's been a few situations where that's happened (both New Brunswick incidents IIRC) but it's alot more difficult to walk into a shopping mall in Yorkdale with a massive gun strapped to your hip or back. --- ...
