Saskatchewan's Gun Exemption: Fair or Expropriation?

Saskatchewan introduces new amendment to Firearms Act, allowing gun owners to keep prohibited firearms with special exemption certificates. Premier Scott Moe assures no guns will be taken away. Owners can hold onto weapons legally, even if federal rules ban them from use. Gun owners and experts have mixed views on this move, with some seeing it as a fairer option and others calling it expropriation. The province expects an increase in requests for certificates and appraisals from owners and businesses. Meanwhile, federal officials face pushback as Saskatchewan challenges the program head-on, highlighting growing tensions between provinces and Ottawa over gun laws.
