Absolutely. But the feds knew the coming chaos.
There was a covid meeting with the Police chiefs, getting their crisis marching orders . They were given a heads up on semi-auto firearms confiscation and loss of federal support payments as well .
The obvious solution - fill the coffers the easy way (as usual) - more provincial offence fines. The tail light chasers go on blitzes as political reaction, when cash is required and seasonally.
ALSO - The chiefs who own guns got a chance to sell them off !
