As a Canadian, I stand with the hunters and target shooters. What Trudeau is doing is completely unacceptable.

[mickeyandres]

Wow, Trudeau just can’t speak without hatred towards Canadians, it’s abhorrent.

[luketarplin]

Down with Bill C21, it’s a property rights issue. Criminalizing ordinary Canadians.

[darcygross]

He's starting to crack. Keep on him.

What gun lobby? you either have a restricted license or you do not and to get one is a grueling background check, so basically your taking sport rifles from law abiding citizens let's not forget that criminals don't care about laws right? It is ridiculous

[auroraborealisknives]

There is no gun lobby in Canada but there are alot of hunter and gun enthusiasts who jave had enough of Trudeau’s disrespect

[jameslacey]

Why are we taking guns from law bidding citizens that have the knowledge and expertise to handle their weapons?
The law should be if you use a firearm during a crime you will get a 40-50 year sentence instead of 4 years.

[murraybloom]

Never a straight answer from The Trudcastro.

[coolerking]

They did the same thing in Australia. You cant even get a paintball gun or airsoft gun without a license.

[darcylund]

Can’t even answer a simple yes or no question

[davidgordon]

All the while he is deep in the pockets of the world economic forum

[kevinhowell]

I seriously hope there is a spring election. Trudeau must go

[TheModelGuy]

What kind of gun was used in the stabbings last month in Sask?

Oh right

[henrysiemens]

Never straight answer from Justin Trudeau you gotta go now

[chrisnewby]

Hopefully eastern Canada has finally realized who they voted for

[dustingray]

So why did you use the Emergencies Act for a protest, it really was because Canadians didn't do what you wanted them to do isn't it!

[blademan]

Justin is taking care of all Canadians….
Well ..Off to the food bank… The lines are getting longer and if I hate it when they run out of crickets and those little crackers….

[tinalaursen]

Why don't we just go ask Xi Jinping? He's probably more truthful than Trudeau.

[williamb.]

Sickening. Turdeau really hasn't got a clue what he's doing. Way out of his league.

Trudeau, champion of not answering simple questions
