Significant amendments to the Criminal Code including criminalization of the expression of ideas related to terrorism.
What about restrictions against the right to hold public demonstrations, or restrictions against the freedom of assembly.

Once they neutered your gun rights, you knew the Canadian government would eventually have their way with you.

"Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety."

VERY FEW PEOPLE IN CANADA OWN FIREARMS�

Exactly the opposite is true: twenty-nine per cent of Canadian homes possess an estimated total of nine million firearms. Other authorities insist that even this figure is too low, and that there is at least twenty million firearms in Canada. The UN reported that Canada ranks third among the developed western countries (behind the United States and Norway) in the civilian ownership of firearms.

There is an average of three firearms in every gun-owning Canadian household. The majority of gun-owning households in Canada own rifles and/or shotguns; on a per capita basis, Canadians own nearly as many rifles as Americans.

Canadian firearm owners tend to be predominantly male, slightly older than average but with a higher than average income. Wildlife hunters are more likely to be �blue collar� workers or farmers, while handgun owners tend to be �white collar� professionals.

Canadians own firearms for target shooting, gun collecting and wildlife hunting; socially innocuous sport and recreational pursuits that generate substantial economic benefits. Canadian target shooters spend at least forty to one hundred million dollars annually on competition-related tourism. Wildlife hunting, the overwhelming majority of which involves firearms, contributes six billion dollars and thirty-three thousand jobs to the Canadian economy every year. It is a recreational activity practised by over 20% of Canadians (excluding aboriginal Canadians).

I feel sorry for you guys.
How could they pass such a bill years after the entire world saw how much damage its kind created since 2001?

Sometimes I'm glad the Israeli authorities are clueless and cannot even vote about taking a piss.
