A former trucker from Florida has been sentenced to more than four years in U.S. prison after smuggling handguns into Canada that were later recovered at 10 crime scenes in Ontario and Quebec, and linked to two killings.
Court documents reviewed by CBC News provide a rare glimpse into a cross-border pipeline for crime guns.
The scheme saw U.S. firearms purchased legally, then transported up to 2,000 kilometres north to be re-sold to a Canadian trafficker for the retail price of the gun, plus a $1,000 fee for each weapon.
One of the weapons was found in Toronto after what police described as a “reckless” shootout in November 2024 that they said highlighted the “real and present danger” posed by illegal firearms.
Yes, I do want to ban your phony “sport” and no amount of paragraphs are going to convince me otherwise. Take your shitty weapons down south if you want a right to them. You don’t have that in Canada.
Your mentality is also part of the problem that will continue to fuck things up.
Guns have almost no place in decent society. The list of people who need a gun is very small and your phony “sport” isn’t included. If that’s a problem with you, go to America. I hope they ban them all. Any argument to the contrary is an obscene affront to human life. Guns are made to kill. End of story.
