RCMP Position and clarification re OIC

[MarkB]

MarkB your hearing BS.
Just checked that link is still up.

OK, the site is up and running again. Strange for some reason it was down last night when I checked, they must have been updating the page.

I think that makes it clear ... if this ever goes in front of a judge, any lawyer would be able to get the case dropped.

But I hope that ALL police are updated and don't bring charges on anyone without being properly informed, as this type of thing makes a mess of people's lives.

Can't see the police going around with gauges to check 10/12 gauges.

No,me neither. A cop would need to be a qualified gunsmith even to present evidence in court that the measuring instrument was properly calibrated and the gun was properly measured. That ain't gonna happen anytime soon.

The RCMP statement is good enough for me.

It also is good enough for Wes Winkel, owner of Elwood Epps and President of the Canadian Sporting Arms and Ammunition Association. It was the Association and who got the "legal opinion" in the first place and stated the panic. Epps is again selling 12 gauge shotguns with choke tubes as are other CSAAA members and large Canadian online dealers.

When the people who hired the lawyer ignore his advice that's a very good indication of what they think about it.

Bill has been lying again.... and as stated, only RCMP knows the full list....

"over 80 22 rifles and 60 shotguns and single shots too" ... SO pump, break action 22s and single shots seem to be on the list now. Libs calling them assault rifles ... also the way he phrases his answer it seems Bill doesn't consider firearm owners as Canadian citizens too.....

Someone has gotten to Blair. He's been told to stick to the rhetorical talking points and not to deviate from them one iota to stop any chance the opposition can use his BS against the Liberal Party. The Liberals know it's BS,we know it's BS and the media knows it's BS,yet,they keep feeding it to the sheeple in great big doses and they keep sucking it up like a sponge. There's just no hope for those folks.

Billy Liar will stick to the rhetoric, sent down by his puppet master, our village idiot. He is clearly way over his head. His continual lying, hopefully, will catch up with him.

I don't think he's deliberately lying. I think he genuinely doesn't have a clue. He's a cop,not a lawyer and it really shows when he tries to quote law and write regulations. He should have stayed retired and just faded away.........like the rest of us. It reminds me of the old adage "It's better to be a big fish in a little pond than a little fish in a big lake".
