How many more times does the issue of a handgun ban have to be raised before the federal government realizes that the time has come for a handgun ban. This is the topic that has dominated this blog over the last year. (here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here)
The Toronto Police Services Board supports it and has made this issue a priority for the Board.
The Chief of the Toronto Police Service supports it.
Mayor Miller supports it.
The 68,000+ residents who have signed the Mayor’s petition support it.
Ontario’s Attorney General and Community Safety and Correctional Services Minister support it.
The Premier of Ontario supports it.
The Toronto Star supports it and has had numerous editorials (here and here) saying just that.
If the federal government wants to get serious on crime – a handgun ban must be part of its response to this threat to our communities.
