i am sick of the artificial barriers which the liberals have created for canadians around sporting handguns, it is like being over-regulated by a paranoid and delusional committee of antis being a real damn nuisance to the citizenry

Does anyone know the year this film was first made?
Gun laws against lawful owners are so absurd that one is led to think that there must be another reason for such laws which have no affect on their stated goal. What could another reason possibly be ? Does it have anything to do with China ?
Damoff's question was a combination of lies and misdirection and misinformation. She is sticking to the Lib's program. The elephant in the room on the magazine issues are not being addresed here either, such as semi auto and bolt actions, or even other action styles, that can take a 10rd mag, but were not built with them originally.
Excellent jobs from Mark Ryckman & Dr. Langman for actually providing facts & evidence.

Can I ask where exacly in ontario where we can hunt and fish? Thank you
If you don’t want guns banned, than we have to take reasonable *precautions* to prevent guns from getting a bad name by keeping them out of the hands of criminals. Everyone can agree on that. As a responsible and law abiding firearms owner, I am fine with the long-gun registry, it was a good idea. The long gun registry *prevents criminals from obtaining firearms through straw buying* I can think of many people I know who are currently in possession of firearms despite being prohibited because of criminal convictions. As for the cost of the registry, ask yourself, how much do you think it costs to investigate & prosecute gun crimes? If you can prevent criminals from getting their hands on firearms in the first place, that’s money saved and less crime in society.
Huh?

The statistics on crime do not support your claims. Straw purchases are so rare they are not worth discussing. Gun registries exist solely to allow politicians to confiscate guns when it suits their political goals. Crimes are not prevented at all by such bureaucratic wastes of resources. Criminals obtain guns through criminal means. Smuggling mostly from the US. I support a regime of licensing and safety training as mandatory for owning and using firearms, but registries are a complete waste of resources.
@@whiskeytango9769 The statistics are the exact opposite of what you’re saying. Very few prohibited firearms are smuggled in to Canada from the U.S., most illegally possessed firearms are actually legal firearms bought at Canadian gun stores on Canadian soil. I have personally know of at least 20 people I can think of who obtained firearms through straw purchases when they were legally privy her from obtaining firearms and this is in a small town of 30,000 people. You don’t know what you’re taking about because you’ve never been around the block. Take it from an Ex-street guy.
@@andrewsmith7115 Your personal anecdotes do not align with the data from Stats Can or from what the police chiefs everywhere have to say. When data comes up against anecdote, your anecdotes fail. Sorry. You are mistaken
@@whiskeytango9769 I don’t have to argue with you because I know you’re wrong. Stats Can and Police Chiefs don’t say that, show me the evidence for those claims. I think you’re actually lying at this point.
@@whiskeytango9769 …still think strawbuying isn’t a major problem in Canada, genius?
"Middle ground" seriously? If new policy is detrimental and discriminatory to part of your members, e.g. 10%. You should protect and fight for those 10%. Not to seek a middle ground excuse to push them under the bus, while pretending that you are doing something ...
"We cannot hunt with handguns, why do we care?" --- WHY you cannot hunt with handgun? There are a lot of hunting handguns and people hunt with them in other areas of the world. The hunting handguns are also very save as they are powerful enough to get the game, but offer large bullet drop to avoid accident if you miss a game. So why you cannot hunt with it? That's right, some time ago you LOST the fight and failed to protect them, so government prohibited them from use for hunting. So, it is not that you cannot hunt with a handgun, but the government prohibited their use for hunting. That's the big difference. Did government stopped after that prohibition? No! It will keep going for more and more guns until they ban them all along with hunting.
I came here to learn more about this. My first reaction is, they will keep pushing and pushing until they are taking away hunting rifles too. It is important to stand for all RIGHT NOW. I've often wondered why handguns couldn't be used for hunting. However, I know nothing, really about guns. But if you're hungry, you're hungry and any gun, in reality could get you a meal. So I don't really understand the difference. I had no idea that there were hunting handguns that have already been taken away. I will look for more information on it. Thank you so much for this information!
We are wasting all this time on the fine print and other details when the only discussion we should be having is how do we get rid of this Government. We must push out the Liberals, and actively work and put our effort to elect firearms friendly politicians. Also the importance of the Senate to stop these "stupid" laws.
Many bolt action rifles are on the ban list .
bout damn time! there better be some elk left for me Ahole, if not I'm flushing your goldfish down the toilet and takin your puppy, jk.... "wheres the beef"?
Have you developed an app for the reporting yet? Also if reporting was done one the app sooner could more tags for moose or deer be offered with a media/app release of a cut off if you haven’t filled your tag.
Sucky boi :0
Dear OFAH I was just wondering if your Federation would voluntarily dismiss yourselves from the provincial big game advisory committee for tag allocation. Here in Northern Ontario concerned hunters have reservations of your bias and symbiotic relationship with NOTO and our MNRF. It’s time for a change to have equity in the representation for the Northern Ontario hunter for our provincial moose hunter tag allocation .Circulation of a petition to remove your federation from this process will be forwarded to a MNRF ombudsman .
Northern Ontario sportsman say no to the OFAH and keep them south of the Mattawa and French rivers .
Poaching should never be an option although I think we in Northern Ontario should be more cognizant of this special interest group called the OFAH and the symbiotic relationship that exists between them NOTO and our MNRF . Northern Ontario sportsman must shut off this shameful Federation when negotiating our moose hunting privileges to a demographic of higher paying hunters . Our crown lands and the wildlife is a public trust owned by all of us . It’s not a playground for hunters , sportsman that are in a higher tax bracket . Shame on you OFAH .🖕
Special interest group for MNRF and NOTO . More to come on this so called special interest that disguises itself as a sportsman lobby group .
Special interest whores for our MNRF and NOTO . Keep up the good work as representatives on the big game committee where for years Ontario resident moose hunters tag allocations dropped and Tourist Outfitters tags allocation increased . Hey doesn’t your OFAH magazine sell advertisement to Ontario’s Outfitters ?
Can’t get into the specifics due to confidentiality REALLY . Last time I checked our crown lands and the wildlife that inhabits it is a public resource . I seen how your federation answered the call when dealing with access issues and the restrictions imposed by MNRF to our crown lands for our Anglers and Hunters . And it was not in favour of the Ontario sportsman. Your federation aligns itself with NOTO and is nothing but a special interest group that receives income from our Government. So spare me your BS windrow dressing as if you really care about the resident Ontario moose hunter .
When the European came to Canada fish, forests and lands and animals were plentiiful.Deer and moose are sick and soon if a stop to hunting till they are well and multiply the moose and the deer will be no longer be here.Government and Algonquins need to get these poor animals then argue who has the right to kill them.Our water is in terrible shape and the fish are sick from Mercury and other cancer causing chemicals. I hope everyone will stop the grreediness.When the European came they took everything away from all First Nations in North America.Many First Nations people are now educated in conservation and their concerns are to look after Mother Earth and has been for thousands of years.As far as resources that have never been shared with the Algonquins.Just take a look how great it would be if info meetings happened and everyone get along.
Absolutely true and amazing! I am sharing this on my Facebook pages and will also post it on my website.
I miss this man
I love Satan's earthly creation. And I hate what canerous city's full of pleasure minded consumers are doing to our plant in cooperation with harmfull industry's.
It is time to feed PRIONS to the people whom do nothing to protect this world from themselves.
The world is to full of gigantic city populations of wasteful resource consumers. The power of $GOD MUST BE REMOVED WITH THE PEOPLE THAT EMPOWER $GOD TO DESTROY THE balance of nature through numbers.
You can not discuss the conservation of resources with out also discussing the reduction of resources consumers. If you want to better the world, depoulate the made scientist with all the people that rely on $GOD FOR EVERYTHING. ONLY THEN WILL THIS WORLD EXIST IN PERPETUAL BALANCE WITH NATURE.
This is a federal employee of SATAN, He took an oath to defend Satan's interest in $GOD.
Hunting, gathering and farming give the people freedom from king Satan, this reduces the power $GOD has OVER THE PEOPLE,
PRIONS have been used as an unknown biological weapon to wipe out the unwanted masses for over 36000 years. The Catholic Church has always been the director of these optrosities. The world's affairs have always been run by the federal government from with in the walls of the Vatican. Satan is the federal government that empowers $GOD TO INSLAVE THE WORLD TO SATANS AUTHORITY. IT IS THE FED THAT MAKES EVERYTHING IMORAL, AND POISONOUS, AVALIBLE TO EVERYONE.
A deadly mildew spore growing on unproperly dried corn being stored for the futures market in silos was discovered to make animals feed this corn sick and die. This was the ueropean outbreak of mad cow. MONSANTOES engineered a mildew resistant corn that naturally produces abnormal PRION proteins called a PRION. In 1999 MONSANTOES stratigicaly paid farmers to plant test plots in one corner of there primary corn crop, the PRION laced pollen from this deadly corn made it's way into standard varietys of feild corn. This poison corn was eaten by small numbers of animals in very controlled fashion through out North America. Now it is in every state, how did that happen, the geese ducks and doves eating the PRION corn spread across the migratory route through out the world and America, now the sky's are empty of 90% of these birds because they are dead. When this disease made it's way into exotic animals, for sale, and threatened to wipe out there interest in profits, then it got the feeds attention. However, PRIONS are being used to remove meat from nth American tables, they are infecting our wildlife and domestic animal meat supply with PRION corn knowing anybody who consumes meat with PRIONS becomes infected, any body they kiss or have sex with becomes infected any children born to an infected mother is born infected. The scale of this PRION saturation will reduce the human resource consumption rate by more than 95% by 2050. That 7.5 billion people dead and gone from PRION induced death of one form fashion or another. Who is behind it. Who empowers $GOD, WHAT DOES $GOD EMPOWER OVER THE WORLD. $GOD HAS ALWAYS WANTED TO CONTROL THW WHOLE WORLD AS ONE NATION UN $GOD. SOON IT WILL DO SO.
This is all lies. $GOD IS THE ONLY THING THAT EMPOWERS THE FEDERAL GOVT. THOSE THAT EMPOER $GOD HAVE ALWAYS PLANNED TO CONTROL THIS WORLD AS ONE NATION UNDER THERE $GOD. EVEN YOU TRUST $GOD FOR EVERYTHING YOU WANT AND NEED, BUT $GOD HAS NO FEELINGS FOR YOU, NO RESPECT FOR YOU, $GOD CAN NOT SAVE YOU FROM WHAT THE POWERS OF THE PEOPLE THAT PLANNED THE PUBLIC CITIZEN RESOURCE CONSUMPTION REDUCTION ACT OF AGENDA 21-30-50. THIS PLAN IS THE USE OF PRIONS TO INFECT, CITIZEN MEAT SOURCES BY 2021, AFFECTIVELY REMOVEING MEAT FROM THE TABLES OF HUMANITY BY 2030. PRIONS WILL RUN THERE COURSE THROUGH MAN AND MAMMAL, UNTIL ALL OF HUMANITY IS INFECTED BY 2030 GLOBALY. BY 2050. ALL PRIVATE CITIZENS BORN WIL BE INFECTED AT BIRTH AND NO ONE INFECTED WILL LIVE BEYOUND THIRTY YEARS AGAIN. THE BIRTH TO DEATH CYCLE WILL BECOME SUSTANIBLE THUS MORE PEOPLE WILL DIE THAN ARE BORN, EVENTUALY BRINGING THE POPULATION OF HUMANITY DOWN TO ROUGHLY 500.000.000 PEOPLE GLOBALY WERE MAN AND MAMMAL WILL ONCE AGAIN BE IN EQUALIBRIUM WITH NATURE AND ALL WILL HAVE ROOM WITH OUT ENCROCHING EACH OTHER. BIRTH CONTROL WILL BE GOVERNED BY NOAHIDE LAW, ENFORCED BY THE BLADE FOR THE UNLAWFULL. JESUS CHRIST WILL RULE THE WORLD WITH HIS HIS SWORD OF JUSTICE.

how did it get in deer farms to begin with?
Great info!
I talked to a guy at shoppers drug mart that told me he was headed up north to his privite property to poach a moose with out a tag. I called him out and he said its his property and can shoot what he wants. We need to educate non hunters on game seasons so that people know about poaching
Congratulations Molly, and thank you Honda for supporting OFAH.
I have noticed a huge drop in lamprey in Lake Ontario over the past 6-7 years. Almost every salmon/trout used to have lamprey marks or lampreys themselves on them and now I barely see any evidence of them on the salmon/trout. The lampricide is must be doing a number on them
This was a good presentation, I will pass it on...more need to see it and act for preservation of our wildlife .
Fantastic! Makes me want to get outside!
