While Liberal Party MPs on the House of Commons public safety committee had tried to ram Trudeau's gun grab legislation, Bill C-21, through before the Christmas break, opposition MPs on the committee voted 6 to 5 Tuesday to block the effort. 

The effort to rush the passage of the bill was led by committee chair and Liberal MP Ron McKinnon, who said MPs were "out of time" to get the legislation passed before the break for the holidays.

However, due to a joint effort by committee MPs from the Conservative Party, the New Democratic Party (NDP), and the Bloc Québécois, the bill will first have to go through no less than eight public hearings in the new year.

According to one MP, the reason for the public hearings is for the committee itself to travel "across Canada as soon as possible to rural, northern, and Indigenous communities to hear from impacted individuals." 

In response, McKinnon said that any public hearings would mean the bill would be delayed until at least April 2023, as this is the earliest the committee would be able to travel. 

Canada's Parliament is now in recess for the Christmas break and will not return until January 30, 2023. As a result, Bill C-21 like all others is on hold for the time being.

As reported by LifeSiteNews, Bill C-21, if passed, would stop all used handgun sales and severely restrict new sales.

Initially expected to pass, controversy arose after the debate period of the bill had finished, the Trudeau government hastily added new gun models to Bill C-21, including long guns used by hunters. 

The last-minute additions were blasted by Indigenous Canadians, hunters, farmers, and opposition MPs as a crass attempt to try and ban most guns and take them away from their legal owners... Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
