Canada's Broken Gun BuyBack Program

[00:00:00]This is insane because all these resources uh should not be going to should come to your house at the end of October. These resources should be going to capture people like what I showed off the top. Those resources should go to looking to arrest criminals and in gangs, cartels, things like that. Don't spend your money coming after a farmer in Chilowak. Or this is this is quite possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard of now that you've explained it more.

[00:00:42]Gun bans and licensed gun owners possessing any of these firearms has absolutely no connection to firearm related crime rates. And uh it's all about uh the government sitting back and letting criminals do whatever they want.

[00:00:56]>> Uh it's got to do with bail reform, repeat violent offenders. It has to do with sentencing. It's like, well, I'm not going to hold you accountable for this heinous criminal act because it may >> negatively affect your ability to stay into the country because you're a new Canadian like the or you've had a tough life. I know you murdered an elderly lady for no reason at random, but you know what? I don't want to be too harsh.

[00:01:21]Here's probation and maybe one year in jail and the rest of it in house arrest.

[00:01:25]Like these are the reasons for these drivers. Um, and it's it's complicated, but these are the reasons why you have farm related violence. And where did they all come from? They came from the Liberal government, the same group of people under Justin Trudeau in 2015 as there is under Mark Carney today. So, I don't know if people really care about farm related violence and ending this in Canada, you have to get rid of the people that created it in the first place.

[00:01:50]>> They got to go. We got to vote them out.

[00:01:52]We got to change these things before they get stuck or cemented in policy, but it seems to be that way. Like this the guy in charge of the gun buyback program just makes me laugh. It's like he they picked him out of a comedy show or something. Gary Andis Andisangangery or whatever his name is. He doesn't seem to know the first thing about guns. He doesn't know the first thing about guns.

[00:02:14]Come on. And uh well, I think you know that. But this gun buyback program, I I was saying to you before, a law-abiding citizen is going to abide by the law. So if the law says, look, you have to turn your guns in. Sorry, but this is what we're doing. Then law-abiding citizens are going to turn their guns in. But it's the gang criminals. You think that what they're going to do? Rock up to the police station and say, "Here, take my gun." And then and then what happens?

[00:02:42]Like is is this not completely stupid?

[00:02:45]And then does this mean that the average citizen cannot defend themsel in any way in case a wackadoo comes into their house? What do we what do we do about protecting ourselves?

[00:02:55]>> Well, that's complicated, too. So, um I think a lot of people think that in Canada you cannot defend yourself with a firearm. In fact, you can and not run a file of the law.

[00:03:05]>> You can.

[00:03:06]>> Yes, you can. But it's but here's here's the caveat. It is it is complicated. So you can you can defend yourself with anything from a firearm to a pipe wrench in Canada if your actions are appropriate in the circum reasonable in the circumstances. You know anyway there's a whole list of things in the criminal code that determine whether or not you lawfully defended yourself. But if you use a pipe wrench that's one thing. There's no actual act in in legislative act that that um governs over how you stored the pipe ranch or how you used it and what conditions you used it and all the rest of that stuff.

[00:03:42]Whereas with with firearms there's an entire the firearms act and a big chunk of the criminal code all deals with the use possession and use of firearms. So can you do it? Yes. Is it complicated and is it uh risky? Yes, it is as as well. So, when it comes to I I just want to go back to something you said, you know, law-abiding gun owners, they're the ones that are going to turn their guns in. I am shocked as running Canada's Gone Lobby at how few people even participated in the buyback registration process >> because when this amnesty that's protecting gun owners against criminal liability associated with these, you know, prohibited firearms, when that ends, everyone who has them is in unauthorized possession of a prohibited firearm. In the eyes of the law, that's a machine gun. Whether or not it is, none of these things are machine guns, but in the eyes of the law, it is. And you can do a decade in prison for that.

[00:04:37]And I can't believe how many law-abiding citizens with, you know, diligent compliant citizens are like, you know what, they've absolutely gone too far and they're not turning their stuff in.

[00:04:51]And to me, non-compliance, that's bad.

[00:04:54]That tells a government, we've gone too far. We've we've been hammering and hurting and injuring the wrong people, and they've actually had enough. when good people in their eyes when when in like so somebody like me for me when I look at the government I'm like I don't recognize their authority anymore the this is not this is a bad group of people I cannot comply with what they're saying anymore that is the beginning of the disintegration >> of law order in Canada and these people have pushed it really past that limit and I'm very surprised but people are they've had enough of it and I don't even know where this is all going now to be honest with you I uh visited some relatives in in America and uh one one of the friends there, oh my gosh, he had tons of guns.

[00:05:41]Like tons of guns, but he's a law-abiding citizen. He can teach you how to shoot. He's he's a good guy.

[00:05:47]Like, but if if he were to live in Canada, I mean, like I'm sure there's Canadians that have all kinds of gun collections. Does this mean with the gun buyback program if you don't turn it in by a certain date you're breaking the law and then yet they call it voluntary?

[00:06:05]What do what's up with that?

[00:06:08]>> Well G big Gary as we like to call him Gary and Sanganger the part that he said is voluntary is participating in the buyback program. So you know it's it's in there there's such a story behind this buyback program. It's actually just a wild the w one of the wildest stories you ever heard. But the government promised back in 2020 that they would compensate good licensed gun owners, right? Law-ab-bing people that legally obtained and legally maintained the possession of this property >> that it's not your fault. You didn't do anything in Nova Scotia on April, I believe it was the 19th, uh, 2020. you know that none of this is your fault, but we just can't have these guns in our society, so we'll compensate you for them.

[00:06:51]>> And they made this promise for over half a decade, right? Six years.

[00:06:55]>> And when it came to it, their plan to do this buyback, >> knowing full well it would cost$10 billion and take years to do. They're like, "We're not doing that because these are people unlikely to vote for us anyway. What we're going to do is we're going to rip them off." So there is there are probably more than two million of these guns in circulation.

[00:07:18]>> I think far more than two million. Okay.

[00:07:21]So when they came out with this buyback, this is the interesting part. They created so many disincentives to push people away from even participating that they could, you know, just rip everybody off. So they said, "Here's the buyback.

[00:07:36]We're not we're paying for what we think is circulating 136,000 guns." And you're like, "But there's over 2 million." No, we think this, like I've had this, I had a meeting directly with public safety where they told me this. We think 136 will cover it. I'm like, "Nobody's going to participate because they're going to get ripped off." And they're like, "Well, this is what we're doing." I'm like, "Okay." So, they put right right on the website, "Compensation not guaranteed. Why would you tell the government what you have at your house when you know they're going to have a list of what you have and you're going to go to jail for it and then you tell them even if you if you disclose it, you might not even get paid in the first place. They did this to disincentivize >> and then okay >> well and it's it's it's wild. And then in order to even if you told the government what you have and you're participating, even though they told you compensation is not guaranteed, you have to sign this funding agreement. And in the agreement says that the minister can even not pay you just out of their own discretion >> after you told them. And you don't know whether you're getting paid or not until you actually physically have surrendered your firearm to them. And then they're going to be like, "Guess what? You don't get paid or yeah, here's your money."

[00:08:49]And so this whole thing should cost around 10 to 12 billion. That's somewhere around what it should cost.

[00:08:56]But they think they can get away with 700 $700 million. and then put them in a position to not pay you if they deem that their budgets are too tight. Like it's it is the story that just hasn't been told uh in in the at the using the level of detail that's required cuz I can't even it's hard to it's hard to to see and acknowledge the authority of the federal government when they act in a in a in a manner that's pretty much like a sociopath would act.

[00:09:24]>> This is the stupidest thing I've ever heard of. like for them to pay this want to set aside this amount of money and then kind of figure this amount of money isn't even going to cover it. Uh so and then put a disclaimer uh you might even not get your money back in the buyback, right? We might not even have enough money to buy buy back. Who the hell is going to turn in their gun? This is the stupidest thing. Like what can do to refuse this? And if they refuse, what's the incentive? Well, we might not have the money anyway. Uh, is the incentive is that if you don't do it, you're a criminal and you're going to go to jail?

[00:10:00]>> Yep. Yeah. Well, and and and I think I think a lot of people miss what the real consequences of this kind of stuff.

[00:10:08]>> There's so >> there's so many demands on our attention, right? Like you know that it's like it's coming from every >> oh immigration, oh the economy, oh guns, oh it's just you know uh social issues like it's coming from every direction.

[00:10:20]So it's it's very difficult >> very >> but what it what it looks like in reality >> is I don't participate in the buyback >> the amnesty ends >> and then for me I have some restricted firearms right I have handguns I have AR-15s these were restricted these are not like regular firearms you need a special license and you store them specially and you can only shoot them at a range all the rest of that stuff if I don't turn my stuff in the fact that I didn't is enough to get a search warrant from my and the police will kick my door down.

[00:10:53]>> Oh my god.

[00:10:54]>> And who know I mean they know me. Maybe they're going to call ahead. I don't know, right? But it's up to their discretion. They could come with ERT, park the Bearcat on my front lawn, breach the door, throw a flashbang into my house, point guns at me and my family. Maybe there'll be an accident.

[00:11:10]Maybe I got my cell phone in my hand and they shoot me. Then I will be arrested and I will face a number of charges, >> right? And that will put me in prison.

[00:11:19]Now, I'm not responsible for any firearm related violence. I haven't kidnapped anyone or trafficked any humans or, you know, got guns from I haven't done any of this stuff. But the path that the government has taken puts, I would say, nobody knows the real number. I would say about 800,000 people in Canada have a license and have these firearms.

[00:11:38]There's 2.5 million that have licenses, but have these firearms. All of those people are subject to all of that stuff once the amnesty ends. So that was supposed to end at the end of this October.

[00:11:50]>> So people don't understand what's at stake here, you know, and these people are like your your dad and your neighbor. These are normal people. These are not are not criminals.

[00:12:01]>> This is insane because all these resources uh should not be going to should come to your house at the end of October. These resources should be going to capture people like what I showed off the top, the the Sky Train problem, uh the shooting there, the Salsa shooting, the the nightclub shooting, the Niagara Falls shooting, the those resources should go to looking to arrest criminals and in gangs, cartels, things like that.

[00:12:31]Don't spend your money coming after a farmer in Chilowak or this is this is quite possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard of now that you've explained it more like that. What are we going to do about it?

[00:12:46]>> Well, there's there's a number of things we're doing about it. We're going to the Supreme Court to have what the back in 2020 when the Liberals did this huge ban.

[00:12:54]>> They they did it using an order in council which is a legal instrument that they have that's meant for like political appointments, bringing some legislation into force, making minor tweaks to to regulation, but their use of it was this is like an executive order in the United States, right? It doesn't go through the parliamentary the legislative process.

[00:13:14]It's not debated. It's not voted on.

[00:13:16]Nothing. It's a you know royal decree.

[00:13:18]basically. And they took that instrument and they used it to ban billions of dollars of private property and endangering hundreds and hundreds of thousands of people to jail time. And so we went to the courts. We went to the federal court of Canada and we said, "Hey, you can't use orders and counsel to do this kind of stuff." Federal court said, "Yeah, that sounds fine." And we were like, "This can't that can't be right." So we went, we were granted an appeal at the Federal Court of Appeal.

[00:13:46]Now, Federal Court of Appeal, these aren't your regular run-of-the-mill mediocre judges you'll find at the federal court level. These are the high performers, and it's a and it's a it's a panel, right, of three judges. Unanimously rejected our argument. They're like, "Yeah, it's okay for the government to just stroke of a pen make billions of dollars of stuff illegal, all the rest of the stuff that I just said." And we're like, "Holy smokes." So, we went and applied to the Supreme Court of Canada. And the Supreme Court of Canada takes 6% of cases that are, you know, that of applications.

[00:14:18]>> And they took our case, which is really weird because I thought they're not going to take our case. It was a unanimous decision at the Court of Appeal, but they took our case because I think, and I'm just guessing, they see the danger because if the Liberals can do things like that, like some of the biggest things that have ever happened to Canada using orders and council OIC's >> Mhm. Then when when eventually a conservative government shows up and they start they could say oh well you guys set the bar now we're like shutting all of immigration down order and counsel.

[00:14:50]>> Uh we are deporting a million people order and counsel and then everybody starts screaming. It's like you can't do that. It's like CCFR versus Canada. Yeah we can do what the court said. So I think there might be a little bit of that but we're fighting all the way to up to the Supreme Court of Canada. We are participating trying to get the Liberals out in elections.

[00:15:08]>> Yeah. We are holding, we've held rallies across the country against the buyback.

[00:15:13]We've talked to legacy media, alter alternative media, everybody about it.

[00:15:17]We we've been doing everything that possibly can be done to try to push this back. But, >> you know, I can't I can't remove the a federal government, >> you know. So, it's it's a vote. We just have to they have to be voted out.
