This video features Blair Hagen, EVP of Canada's National Firearms Association, discussing the Canadian government's gun confiscation program. Hagen highlights the low compliance rate (2%) with the voluntary registration, the broad scope of banned firearms including common hunting rifles and shotguns, and the high estimated cost per confiscated gun ($25,000). He draws parallels to the failed long gun registry and mentions an upcoming Supreme Court challenge focused on property rights, emphasizing that the issue extends beyond firearms ownership.
