Justin Troodough is grinning like the Cheshire cat. On Friday, his new anti-gun law went into effect. He thinks it is an anti-gun violence law, but as we all know, anti-gun-violence laws result in more violence, not less, so Canada should prepare for the inevitable.

Thanks to Troodough.
Oct 21 (Reuters) – Regulations prohibiting the sale, purchase or transfer of handguns within Canada took effect on Friday, as Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said the measure builds on earlier efforts banning handgun imports.
The handgun freeze was announced in May alongside proposed legislation that would implement the nation’s strongest gun control measures in 40 years as part of Trudeau’s plan to tackle gun violence, his office said. …
Friday’s action stops people from buying, selling or transferring handguns within Canada, and prevents them from bringing newly acquired handguns into the country, according to the prime minister’s office.
The black-market folks must be very excited. Demand is likely to rise, especially among the criminal element who stand most to benefit, just like Chicago, Baltimore, Washington DC, and even London – if you’d like a Western example of stupid outside the US.
Crime and violent crime have risen everywhere this is tried.
Chicago, America’s gun-control Mecca – whose dogma Democrat missionaries work diligently to spread across the country – has had 587 homicides this year. Five hundred thirty of those were the result of “gun violence.”
Baltimore suffers roughly 340 homicides yearly, most of which result from gun violence despite decades of “common sense” Democrat anti-gun laws.
Canada had 743 Homicides in 2020; 277 were gun-related ( I did not find data for 2021).
Moving forward, we can watch (in real-time) how crime and violent crime rise under any new anti-gun violence legislation in Canada, except in Alberta. They have said they will not enforce Troodough’s ridiculous law. I’m not sure how that will play out in the Great White North, but we’ll try to keep you in the loop as that develops.
