York Regional Police: 100% of Traced Guns Smuggled in from United States
York Regional Police kicked the legs out from under Justin Trudeau’s “handgun freeze” when they presented their report – Guns, Gangs and Violence – to the Police Services Board on November 7th.[i]
“Out of 107 firearms that you see, 83 of them were successfully traced. Of those 83 guns that were traced, 100 per cent of them were identified as illicit firearms coming in from the United States and into Canada,” said Inspector Ahmad Salhia.[ii]
One hundred percent of the handguns traced were smuggled into Canada illegally from the United States.
This proves, as we already knew, that Bill C-21 and Trudeau’s much-touted “handgun freeze” are nothing more than virtue signals so he can pander to uninformed urban voters.
“More regulations on law-abiding citizens is profoundly stupid,” said Leo Knight, a former police officer. “It is done by incompetent governments faced with a problem who want to be seen to be doing something but aren’t smart enough to actually figure out what to do.”
Mr. Knight almost nailed it. This Liberal government is thoroughly incompetent and their approach, adding more restrictions on law-abiding citizens, is profoundly stupid.
But it’s also intentional.
The issue is not lack of intelligence or an inability to comprehend facts, but of placing partisan political objectives ahead of public safety.
Pandering for votes is what drives Justin Trudeau and every policy initiative he puts forth. Public safety, if it’s even a consideration beyond his political calculations, comes a distant second.
“Tackling criminal activity requires strong measures against criminals who threaten vulnerable communities, especially criminal activity that funds and empowers gangs and organized crime,” said Brian Sauvé, President of the National Police Federation.
If Justin Trudeau’s Liberal government truly wanted to enhance public safety, he would focus on keeping young people from entering gang life through diversion programs and plugging massive holes in Canada’s border security.
Instead, he continues his attacks on licensed firearm owners.
The York Regional Police report also identified the possible point of entry for those illegal weapons: Walpole Island, a First Nation community on the St. Clair River, right across from Port Huron, Michigan. [iii]
“At its narrowest point there's an 800-metre gap and as you can see, it's very easy for organized crime and other criminals to import illicit contraband into the country,” Insp. Salhia said.
This is just one of many well-known issues with border security.
“According to the union’s own data, as of 2019, only one one-millionth of all rail cargo was effectively being examined. The reality is that our current operational abilities in the rail field are virtually non-existent,” said Mark Weber, National President, Customs and Immigration Union.
Justin Trudeau, Bill Blair and Marco Mendicino know precisely where the problems are, but they know there are no votes to be found in doing the right thing.
Votes are found by pandering to the most uninformed voters who want to see their government “do something” – even if it’s the wrong thing.

Beretta 1301 COMP 12/24 SYN OCHP
The 1301 Comp is a competition semi-auto shotgun optimized for 3-gun matches and practical/tactical shooting. It brings together Beretta’s experience with sporting shotguns as well as the company’s tactical savvy.
|
|
Beretta 1301 Comp: Ready to Go for 3-Gun Matches, Practical Shooting
The Beretta 1301 Comp semi-auto shotgun is designed to win tactical competitions right out of the box. Combining the technology of Beretta’s best sporting shotguns with the requirements of the most demanding tactical shooters, it cycles faster than the competition, handles like a dream and has oversized controls for super-easy operation. It is available in two barrel lengths (21” and 24”) and its receiver is drilled and tapped for rail mounts, so that it can be equipped with optics or tactical aiming devices without any gunsmithing. And thanks to its Optimabore HP interchangeable choke system, it can also be adapted for other uses and will always perform like a Beretta.Lightning-Fast Shooting, Easy Operation
The 1301 Comp features Beretta’s proprietary Blink gas-operating system, which enables it to shoot 4 shots in less than 1 second – that is 36% faster than any other brand. But even with this tremendous advantage, Beretta’s engineers did not stop there. The controls are supersized so that the 1301 can be operated quickly and easily when seconds count: the cocking handle, bolt-release lever as well as the loading and ejection ports are oversized for simple and intuitive use under the heat of competition.
Ultra-Durable Steelium Barrel
The barrel of the 1301 Comp is made of Steelium, Beretta’s own steel blend designed to give premium performance even after tens of thousands of rounds. It features a stepped, wide sporting rib that minimizes mirage, and it has both a mid-bead and front fiberoptic sight for instinctive pointing under most lighting conditions. And thanks to the Optimabore HP choke system, the 1301 offers unmatched ballistic performance, with constant patterns regardless of load used.
Best-in-Class Tactical Stock
Having worked with military and police forces all around the world, Beretta offers you decades of experience building firearms that meet the strictest demands of professional shooters. The 1301 embodies this experience, with its short stock with aggressive non-slip checkering for positive handling under the stress of competition. Also, the length of pull is user-adjustable so that this shotgun will give you the best fit and the most natural pointing regardless of your shooting style, the thickness of clothing or body size.
Thanks to our friends at Stoeger Canada, you can have a chance on this beauty today. Please make a $20 donation to the CSSA, and we will give you a free chance to win this great gun. Better yet, we will give you THREE chances with a $50 donation and TEN for $100.
This shotgun will find a new home on January 2, 2023.

Alan MacDonald | The London Free Press | November 12, 2022
No benefit to ban
In his letter to the editor Gun ban has role (Nov. 3), David Nielsen says the purpose of a gun ban is “to make homicide harder and less convenient” and also “to make a statement of social policy.”
How has this gun ban made our streets any safer? Criminals do not buy their guns through legal channels. In articles involving street crime, The Free Press repeatedly has pointed out crimes involving handguns are committed by suspects prohibited from owning firearms.
One cannot, in Canada, simply go to a store and buy a gun without a valid possession acquisition licence. In order to obtain a license for acquisition, you must first take a course in the safe use of firearms.
There are different requirements for unrestricted weapons, like shotguns, and restricted weapons like handguns. Provided a person is successful in obtaining a licence for a restricted weapon and goes to a licensed gun store to purchase a handgun, you cannot leave the store with it. The purchase has to be processed and sent to the chief firearms officer through the RCMP, a process that usually takes a few weeks. Even then, you cannot take a handgun anywhere without an authorization to transport.
We must differentiate between Canadian firearms regulations and those in the U.S. They are vastly different.
I recommend Mr. Nielson visit a gun range during one of their open houses to speak to firearms owners. Many firearms owners are either active police officers or members of the Canadian Forces, or veterans or retirees from both. They are responsible, law-abiding citizens. If the government is serious about gun crime, the way to address it is to go after the criminals with stiffer sentences for those committing gun crimes. Going after licensed, law-abiding gun owners will not do a thing to solve gun crime.
