Since Trump’s election, gun groups catering to progressives and people of color report a surge in interest as they look to defend themselves in a country that, to them, feels increasingly unstable.

          Canadians citizens are allowed to have guns. Not to the extent the US is but still have firearms.

                  Here you go dumbass. https://lois-laws.justice.gc.ca/eng/acts/C-46/section-34.html

                  Also, I love how you act like Canada is immune to this when the first and only place I’ve ever seen a confederate flag in the western Americas was in Canada. You’re not immune to crazy politics either, and they keep creeping further and further in. Western countries have gotten way too comfortable thinking their freedoms will exist forever without having to fight.

                    Nothing in there mentions firearms. But keep jerking off your ar-15 that you can carry around a gun in public here to defend yourself
