Greg, I've figured out why this gun ban is so bad.
After sitting around all year opposing tougher gun crime sentences on the eve on an election they change their tune.
You know what that says, it says all the Libs care about is getting elected. They know the country is fearful of gun crimes, but rather than substantively doing something about it while they govern, they leverage that fear for vote getting during an election.
Your fears aren't for them to alleviate as a responsible government, they're there for them to foment and leverage for votes.
Worse, the act they chose to "get tough" is the icing on the cake. It creates the appearance of doing something, when in reality it will do little to nothing to stop gun crime.
Even worse, like the gun registry before it, it will likely cost astronomically higher than they say, so once again, Canadians will be paying for Liberal ploys to stay in power.

Calgary Grit:
Hebert's latest review in the Red Star focuses on the Liberals running on failure:
http://tinyurl.com/ddye4
"Prime Minister Paul Martin's admonitions to other world leaders to clean up their acts could not but raise the issue of the Canadian's own dismal performance on clean-air emissions...
Martin's promise to ban handguns was the marquee announcement of the Liberal campaign to date. But it also forced him to revisit one of the Liberals' most memorable failures...
The unity rhetoric they are banking on to recoup ground in Quebec would have no chance to echo with federalist voters if support for sovereignty was not on the rise as a result of the sponsorship scandal..
The broken Liberal promises on the GST and the foot-dragging on the way to a national child-care program have gone a long way to giving political legs to Conservative commitments to put modest amounts of money back in the pockets of consumers and parents of young children...
