I love when people talk about stuff they have NO IDEA of wtf they are talking about.

Contrary to popular belief, it is legal to own guns in Canada. The Criminal Code of Canada classifies firearms as being non restricted, restricted, or prohibited firearms. Common hunting rifles and shotguns are non-restricted firearms. Handguns are restricted. By January 2003, all guns be registered. Restricted weapons require more rigorous registration and licensing. Fully automatic weapons, sawed-off shotguns and so on, are prohibited.
Canada limits possession of handguns to collectors, target shooters and those who can demonstrate a need of guns to protect their lives.

Dont cry because the US has more freedom and better water, than you do. Besides, more people get killed from stabbinga than being shot. So you cant carry a knife either?

I think the real reason WE have more gun freedom is to keep you Canadians up North, where you belong.
