Canada Kicks Off Its Compensated Confiscation Campaign

Original Article

Posted By: mc squared, 10/3/2025 2:03:18 PM

The Liberal government's compensated confiscation campaign aimed at removing the vast majority of semi-automatic firearms from the hands of legal gun owners has officially begun, with a pilot program in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia launching on Wednesday. The "buyback" effort is aimed at taking thousands of models of semi-automatic firearms away from their once-lawful owners, who risk criminal charges if they're caught in possession of their firearms once the government's amnesty period has expired. [snip] He said after the program ends and there are no more buybacks, police will know who still has banned guns, so he may as well comply now and get something for it.

Gun registration, anyone?

They will not get much compliance in ALberta and Saskatchewan. The governments have said that there will be no confiscations there. It will be interesting to see how this plays out. They don't have any 2nd Amendment, but the western provinces are huge geographically, and produce a lot of the money flowing into Canada. Saskatchewan produces the wheat for food, and Alberta the oil and gas for power and transport. Together, about 15-17% of the total Canadian economy. It will be interesting to watch if they stop shipping food and fuel eastward.

All Canadians have to do is look over at England to see what is in store for them. The Canadians are already serfs. Soon they will be slaves. Never register your guns. Registration ALWAYS leads to confiscation and subjugation.

As for the western Canadians, forget about it. They aren't about to have squat confiscated. Kanada is on the brink of shrinking by three provinces. BC may need to split away from the Peoples Republic of Vancouver. If so, the new BC will be the fourth.

Future first son Hunter Biden was tied up in an eyebrow-raising proposal to sell off land around the US embassy in Bucharest, Romania to a group that included a Chinese company — as part of an effort to help a local real estate tycoon beat corruption charges. The scandal-scarred former first son — whose ties to Romania date back to when his father, Joe Biden, was vice-president — became involved in the proposal after he agreed in 2015 to help the developer, Gabriel Popoviciu, fight criminal charges, according to a forthcoming book by New York Times reporter Ken Vogel.

Today, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) released new information on criminal illegal alien Ian Andre Roberts, who was serving as Des Moines, Iowa’s school superintendent at the time of his Sept. 26 arrest. When U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials approached Roberts, he identified himself then sped off, abandoned his vehicle, and hid in a brushy area about 200 meters away, where ICE officers located him with help from Iowa State Patrol officers. At the time of arrest, a loaded handgun, hunting knife and $3,000 cash were found in his vehicle. On Oct. 2, he was charged with being an illegal alien in possession of firearms.

China is actively preparing for war against the United States. The signs are obvious and ominous. During the Biden regime, we saw the first signs of it. The Chinese began a campaign of "elite capture" in the Western Pacific, quietly buying legislators until they controlled the parliaments of at least eight nations and then negotiating defense agreements, that, in the case of the Solomon Islands, gives China the right to deploy troops there to put down civil unrest; see China Seeks to Buy Eight Pacific Island Nations While Joe Biden and His State Department Are Comatose – RedState.

A Dallas-based auto lender built on giving car loans to illegals has just gone belly up, and it’s dragging Wall Street down with it. Tricolor Holdings was once hailed by the US Treasury as a “community development” success story. Now, they’ve just filed for bankruptcy as fraud allegations and a full-blown federal investigation overtake them. The company, which sold overpriced used cars to illegals and wrapped the scheme in a feel-good “social lending” label, is leaving major US banks like JPMorgan, Barclays, and Fifth Third staring at massive losses.
