10:00 – Conservative MP Glen Motz is running a petition opposing the Liberals’ proposed firearm bans. The online petition, launched in December 2019 and sponsored by Glen Motz, Member of Parliament for Medicine Hat-Cardston-Warner and Associate Shadow Minister for Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness, opposes the Liberals’ plan to ban ‘military-style assault rifles’ through an Order in Council, and it has become the second largest e-petition in Canadian history. According to Motz, in less than a month, the petition has garnered over 86,000 signatures, making it clear that Canadians oppose the Liberals’ proposal to strip law-abiding Canadians of their legally purchased property without doing anything to actually address rising gang and gun violence.
