THE CANADIAN FIREARMS ACT MEANS NO CANADIAN CAN TAKE THEIR FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS FOR GRANTED
As amended by Rod. Bugaresti – December 1998. Originally done by Gary Breitkreuz, MP.
(1)The Canadian Firearms Act runs roughshod over everyone’s fundamental right to private property (and also under the Bill of Rights) by giving police the authority to confiscate your property without due process of law and fair, just and timely compensation.– [See Firearms Act, Sections 102(1)(b) and 102(4)] Bill C-68 will also confiscate all prohibited firearms without compensation upon the death of the current owner.
(2)The Canadian Firearms Act runs roughshod over everyone’s fundamental right and Charter right to be secure against unreasonable search and seizure by authorizing police to enter, search and seize without a warrant – even when no crime is known or suspected. You must allow the search or face arrest and may only challenge the legality of the search after the fact. [See Firearms Act Section 102 and 104 and Criminal Code amendments Section 117.04(1)]
(3)The Canadian Firearms Act runs roughshod over everyone’s fundamental right and Charter right against self-incrimination – also known as your right to remain silent, by authorizing police to threaten you with a criminal charge [See Firearms Act, Section 103 and 113] if you do not give the police officer all reasonable assistance and provide police with any information to search and exercise any power conferred on the police relevant to the enforcement of this Act or the regulations or Part III of the Criminal Code. [See Firearms Act, Section 103]
(4)The Canadian Firearms Act runs roughshod over everyone’s fundamental right and Charter right to be assumed innocent until proven guilty – by saying the burden of proof is on the applicant [See Firearms Act, Section 75(3)] and further, the onus of proof is on the accused to prove. [See Criminal Code amendment Section 117.11]
(5)The Canadian Firearms Act runs roughshod over everyone’s fundamental right to legal council before your consenting to a police inspection of any place or a warrantless search of your home. [See Firearms Act Section 103 and 113]
(6)The Canadian Firearms Act runs roughshod over everyone’s fundamental democratic right to be represented by your Member of Parliament – by allowing the Minister of justice to make over four pages of regulations [See Firearms Act Section 117(a) to (v)] and under Part III of the Criminal Code without being laid before either House of Parliament. [See Firearms Act Section 119(6)]
(7)The Canadian Firearms Act runs roughshod over everyone’s fundamental right to be treated equally before the law by giving government the authority to adapt any provision of the act or the regulations as they apply to any of the aboriginal peoples of Canada. – [See Firearms Act Section 117(u)] Note: This provision could be used either to exempt Indians from certain provisions in the bill or impose even stricter controls and even disarm whole reserves. Section 119(6) of the Firearms Act would permit this to be done by the Minister acting alone without the regulation being brought before either House of Parliament.
(8)The Canadian Firearms Act runs roughshod over everyone’s fundamental right to privacy by authorizing the police to conduct inspections (searches) even if you don’t own a firearm. [See Firearms Act, Section 102 and 104]
(9)The Canadian Firearms Act runs roughshod over everyone’s fundamental right and Charter right to freedom of association – by giving the government the power to prohibit you from owning firearms because you cohabit with or are an associate of someone already prohibited from owning guns. [See Criminal Code amendment section 117.011 (l) (b)]
(10)The Canadian Firearms Act even authorizes the creation of even more police officers– by including anyone in the definition who is in a class of individuals designated by the provincial minister. [See Firearms Act, Section 101] .
