Topline

នាយករដ្ឋមន្រ្តីកាណាដាចាស្ទីនទ្រីដូវ ណែនាំ sweeping gun control legislation including a “national freeze” on the sale of handguns Monday, and, though Canada is one of the largest importers of U.S. handguns, American firearm manufacturers don’t stand to be strongly impacted.

ការពិតសំខាន់

Trudeau បាននិយាយថា: the measures would make it impossible “to buy, sell, transfer or import handguns anywhere in Canada,” also ស្នើសុំ។ to limit magazine capacity, take away gun licenses for domestic violence abusers and raise criminal penalties for gun smuggling and trafficking.

The legislation was inspired by the massacre at an elementary school in Uvalde, Texas, last week that killed 19 children and two teachers, as Trudeau បាននិយាយថា: Monday, “We need only look south of the border” to explain the timing of the legislation.

Aside from any political fallout, the proposed handgun ban would ding sales for American manufacturers and pose headaches for local law enforcement.

In 2021, the U.S. was by far the largest exporter of pistols and revolvers to Canada, accounting for 60.9% of imports by value, នេះបើយោងតាម to Canadian government data.

Canada was the fourth-largest importer by value of American revolvers and pistols in 2021, importing $18.2 million worth of the firearms, according to ទិន្នន័យ from the U.S. International Trade Commission.

But that pales compared to the U.S. market, as Americans បានទិញ។ 19.9 million guns in 2021 alone, according to ការប៉ាន់ប្រមាណ from Small Arms Analytics and Forecasting.

Even before Trudeau announced the tightening legislation, illegal guns at the border were an issue: Canada Border Services Agency រឹបអូសបាន។ more than twice as many firearms in 2021 than in 2020, taking 1,122 guns last year.

In 2020, a gunman បានសំលាប់ 22 in Nova Scotia, the deadliest mass shooting in Canadian history. Weeks later, Trudeau បានហាមឃាត់ 1,500 kinds of military and assault weapons. In the wake of the Uvalde shooting, American lawmakers including President Joe Biden have pushed for further gun control legislation, though it is មិនទំនង there will be any legislation brought to the Senate any time soon.

12.7 million. That’s how many civilian-owned firearms are in Canada – including 10.6 unregistered guns – according to ការប៉ាន់ប្រមាណ from the Small Arms Survey research group published in 2018. The rate of privately held firearms in Canada is about a quarter of that of the U.S., according to the Small Arms Survey.
