It's not like it's banned across Canada. They will still be available elsewhere on the island even.

This is just as dumb as local city and state gun laws in the US. Gun nuts point at them and point out how they don't work. Like no shit they don't work when you can just drive for 20 mins and get one.

Edit: okay I got lost . I thought this was about the Canadian city of Victoria. Turns out it's..not. I'm leaving this here as a monument of my stupidity.
