Toronto police have seized 400 guns from law-abiding owners whose licences had expired or been revoked.

Project Safe City saw police seize unlicensed guns within Toronto. Owners were given the option to pay to renew their licences and pick them up again, or to forfeit the weapon. The 400 guns shown yesterday were forfeited. None of the owners were charged.

“This is a crime-prevention initiative,” said Superintendent Greg Getty of Toronto’s guns and gangs unit.

Atrocious. But one can expect little better from governments so the only thing people can do... is to keep on prolonging the licenses and when the state gets even more oppressive do things that are not entirely legal.


Which is called an "armed rebellion". An armed people should never allow anyone to take their guns away from them. And the police does not protect you from crime, they never had never will, guns do.
