Summary
Ontario’s Premier Doug Ford is under pressure from the Canadian Taxpayers Federation to block the federal gun buyback program, citing a Leger poll showing 56% of Ontarians support provincial legislation to stop it—especially outside the GTA and among older voters. Critics argue the costly, low-impact program wastes billions and doesn’t improve safety, with a Cape Breton pilot costing $26K for just 25 guns surrendered. The Federation is urging Ford to act to protect legal gun owners and save taxpayer money. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
