I don't think it's more of a salient point but it does resonate with gun owners.
The legal hoops you have to jump through to own guns in Canada is quite stringent. Pre coivd and even during covid the majority of gun crimes are committed with handguns and they are typically brought in through the states.
It's a hot topic for gun owners, atleast in my view, because they are being punished for being law abiding citizens.
Imagine spending thousands of dollars on a hobby and then being told that you can't enjoy it anymore.
The liberal party found a scape goat for the masses by targeting legal gun owners stating that its going to reduce gun/gang violence.
