The Canadian government announced on Thursday that it was prohibiting its citizens from owning another 324 types of firearms and is working to send them to Ukraine.
“As part of its comprehensive approach, on December 5, 2024, the Government announced the prohibition of more military-style assault-style firearms,” Canada’s Public Safety Department said in a press release. “Amendments to the Classification Regulations have resulted in the prohibition of 104 families of firearms, encompassing 324 unique makes and models.”
Canadians who own the newly banned guns have an amnesty until October 30, 2025, and during that time, the government will implement a buy-back program. Canadian Defense Minister Bill Blair said the government is in talks with Ukraine about sending them the firearms.
“We’ve been working very closely with our friends in Ukraine to ensure that weapons that were intended to be used in combat, could be made available to them,” Blair said.
“The Department of National Defence will begin working with the Canadian companies that have weapons that Ukraine needs and which are already eligible for the assault-style firearm compensation program, in order to get these weapons out of Canada, and into the hands of the Ukrainians,” Blair added.
Historically, Ukraine has had one of the largest black markets for weapons, and there has been very little oversight when it comes to Western military aid to the country. The Pentagon’s inspector general said in a report last year that some Western-provided weapons had been stolen by criminals, volunteer fighters, and arms traffickers.
The Canadian govt had some of the best gun laws in the world and then came Justin trudeau and their tone deaf policy changes. The already unpopular prime minister, has found a way to make Canadians hate him even more. Turning millions of law abiding citizens into criminals overnight, with the wave of a hand, then promising to take away those guns and to add insult, use our taxes to send them to ukraine as a gift!
What an insult to Canadians. I dislike Pollieve, he is a weak candidate and seems to be working from a copy of trumps playbook. the NDP has a leader who will not win, he's a great politician, but not a p.m. sadly. I wish somebody in canada would field a winning candidate, with a platform that appeals to a wide base, that people would vote for. I fear, like our neighbor to the south, we will be going from bad to worse as trudedope, loses and pollieve forms a minority govt. More authoritarianism, more family values, more zionist fealty, more environmental destruction and more expensive proxy wars…sigh, the world sure could use a paradigm shift away from the psychotic war mongers, turning everything to sheet. a paradigm where destroying the world, because of egotistical, tough talking, idiot men, would be laughed out of the room. oh to dream.
What is Ukraine going to do with a motley assortment of rifles?
If you are running an army, you want to have standard rifles. That way, you can train soldiers on the standard rifle. When going into battle, you just hand each soldier one of the standard rifles.
It's typical of NATOs "aid". These countries have been emptying out their garages, attics, and basements, sending any old junk they find to Ukraine, putting an exaggerated dollar value on it, and boasting about how much "aid" they have given. MUCH of it is simply a waste of shipping space. The UK admitted they had "donated" something like "30,000 pairs of boots" that were actually rotted out and unusable, just to get rid of them. M113s, 40 year old Leopards that have been stored in barns for decades, PBV302s, now 50 year old French wheeled VABs, our old and discarded MRAPs, the list goes on and on. It's a cold war antique collection. I regularly watch the Youtube videos from the front, and I am struck by how little of this stuff ever shows up. It's largely unusable.

Why is Canada rushing guns to Ukraine?
Also, explain to me why the US is rushing $ Billions ammunition, weapons, and cash to Ukraine before 01 January. Ukraine is selling off as many weapons as they can to anyone with cash.
Headline From Europe: Iran tells Ukraine to ‘stop supporting terrorists’
Kiev’s weapons sales to Syrian militants violate international norms, the foreign ministry in Tehran has said
The reason the US is sending billions more to Ukraine is so that Joe Obongo Biden and their cronies, can pick up cash as kick backs for Ukraine to give back to the hand that fed them. The question is, how many Millions or Billions of US dollars will Iran get before Joe Obongo Biden is out of office. Joe does not have any common sense left in his brain, so Obongo is pulling the strings.
So… would that makes US the pimp and Ukraine the prostitute…?!
Your invasion, your fault.
Don't cry now.
I’m laughing,,,!
HTS thugs probably got their weapons from Ukraine. I have read that they somehow got ahold of S-400s.
Now, I wonder where they will go….hmmmm
America had better rush more weapons to Ukraine! Ukraines weapons Walmart is in need of more weapons to sell to terrorists in Syria.

Nazis pigs in Canada are just making excuses to disarm their population exactly how the 3rd Reich in Germany did from 1938 to 1945.
Show me the list of 324 guns that are just now outlawed in Commie Canada!
