Having been a hunter for 40 years.
Assault weapons are not a problem with law abiding citizens in canada.
So why even have anymore gun laws ...... oh ya, 1 law .... if you get caught with an assault weapon in the midst of a crime .... automatic 10 years with no parole possibilities for a conviction of this crime.
That should slow it down a bit.

Or the courts start doing their friggen jobs. Stop allowing the judges to play psychology and social worker.
wtf is a pre sentence report???
Judges are paid to impose a decision of guilt and sentencing, not to try and figure out the perps past problems .... they can get that in prison.
It is a house of cards and I am waiting for a smart enough lawyer to start challenging the three tiered system that is in use presently.
Natives cant be sentenced because of wrongs from the past.
Unequal representation between those with the money and those without ....
Sure legal aid is such a game changer lol if it is so damn great why arent those with money using these lawyers?
Unless both sides use the same lawyer then there is an immediate disadvantage by one of the parties.
1 lawyer is better than the other therefore creating a distinct disadvantage.
By allowing judges and juries to view the accused, it allows for obvious personal prejudices to manifest and influence all rulings.
Jmho

Murder also isn't a problem with law abiding citizens.

For those who care, the cliff notes from the Alberta budget put forward today
- Alberta public service to be cut 7.7% over 4 years
- yuuuge tax cuts (corporate rate is scaling down to 8%....8% that's into tax haven territory), so the debt is expected to his 93 billion by 22-23
- 760 univeristy jobs cut
- Freezing K-12 education until 2022 despite the system growing by 60,000 kids between now and then (who needs high school with all those good oil jobs, right?)
- 200 million dollar bump to health care funding, 100m to mental health another big chunk to combat the out of control opiod use out there
- Despite the increase in funding, a new hospital in south Edmonton is being delayed until...2030...a mental health ward at another major hospital is also being "deferred" (easier than just cancelling it now..)
- Cuts to the seniors drug program
- extra 5 bucks tax on a cartoon of darts
- 9% cut to municipal funding...that'll teach them for electing socialists and a brown guy at the muni level
- Post secondary tuition going up 7.4%
- Advanced education spending down 12.5%
- More funding for trades education.....
- Despite the cuts, spending is up because they're cancelling oil by rail contacts signed by the NDP, and there's a 1.5 billion dollar price tag for cancelling the contracts
Beleafer throws the term "neoliberal" around pretty loosely....but it's apt here, jesus titty fucking christ. Thank fuck I moved.

Well, at least Alberta can keep their corporate taxes ridiculously low and avoid having a provincial sales tax or tax on alcohol like every other fucking province in the Country. That's more important than silly things like educating future generations, healthcare, hospitals and the like.
And besides, it's all Trudeau's fault, amirite?
If only he wasn't so ardently against the pipeline (that he spent $4.5B trying to rescue) that'd fix all of Alberta's problems, and damn him for the unfair equalization formula that was designed by a Harper government that Kenney himself was one of the principal cabinet members in!

Yes. But there aren't many votes to grab from even the most progressive CPC members in the center of their party.
At least not compared to the amount of votes floating around freely on the left. Parties go to where the votes are.
