The fight to make handguns illegal in Canada
Today on Front Burner, we speak to Toronto Liberal MP Adam Vaughan, who says he disagrees with his party’s stance ruling out a handgun ban. Is the fight to ban handguns in Canada over?
On Wednesday, Ottawa city council was asked to support a handgun ban. It's the latest municipality to table such a request. However, the federal Liberals say a handgun ban is no longer being considered. The fight for a federal prohibition on handguns ratcheted up after a number of high profile shootings in public spaces — like the Danforth shooting in Toronto, and Ottawa's Byward Market. Today on Front Burner, we talk to Toronto Liberal MP Adam Vaughan, about why he disagrees with his party, and thinks a national prohibition on handguns is still the way forward.
