Reading things like this makes it make sense as to why the government is putting big efforts into reducing legal gun ownership (and the type of guns targeted, ex. 50 cal rifles) instead of going after criminals and makes sense of things like the Online Harms Bill... The elites are trying to prevent a repeat of 1789 France or 1917 Russia.

Wasn't this because people overwhelmingly supported stricter gun laws and buyback programmes?

Not to mention:

The RCMP report authors warn that whatever Canada’s current situation, it "will probably deteriorate further in the next five years."

So you mean with climate change getting extremely bad, end-stage capitalism, and the worst housing situation we've ever seen, people are angry? No, it's the Federal Liberals banning 50 cal rifles that people are angry about!

What an embarrassing article.
