flag Canada's 2024 gun buyback program removed thousands of firearms but sparked debate over fairness, transparency, and effectiveness.

flag A federal gun buyback program in Canada, launched in 2024 to reduce gun violence, has sparked debate despite broad public support for gun control. flag While the initiative offers compensation for surrendering certain firearms like handguns and semi-automatic weapons, critics argue it unfairly targets lawful gun owners, lacks transparency in implementation, and fails to address illegal gun trafficking. flag Concerns include delayed payments, inconsistent criteria, and questions about cost-effectiveness, with some claiming it diverts resources from broader public safety efforts. flag The government says thousands of firearms have been removed, but the controversy highlights tensions between public safety and individual rights in a nation with strict gun laws.
