While this site is dedicated to the protection of the Second Amendment to the Constitution of the United States, we acknowledge that this is not the only country where the anti-gun community has reared its ugly head.
In an article written by Clive Edwards, and posted on enterstageright.com:
It is worth noting that over the course of the gun control debate in Canada the emphasis has shifted from "sporting use" and "hunting" as valid reasons for owning firearms to "personal protection". The logic of this shift is unavoidable; sports, even hunting are not protected by either the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms or the UN Declaration of Human Rights. Personal protection is protected by both.
Clive makes some very sound and cogent points in his piece. Be sure to check it out in full by clicking here.
