Canada bans over 300 new firearm models, totaling 14,521, on the Montreal Massacre anniversary.

On the eve of the 35th anniversary of the Montreal Massacre, Canada's government expanded its banned firearms list by adding over 300 new makes and models, bringing the total to 14,521. The move is part of Bill C-21, which bans handguns and imposes stricter controls on military-style firearms. Existing owners have until October 2025 to comply through a buyback program. The Coalition for Gun Control praised the government's action, advocating for evidence-based strategies to reduce gun violence.
