Gun rights advocates and licensed firearms owners are planning a rally in Quebec City this weekend in opposition to the Liberal government’s gun ban and buyback program.
The event will take place nearly six weeks after Ottawa announced gun owners across Canada could declare interest in the nationwide program. The buyback program offers financial compensation for handing in or permanently deactivating so-called assault-style firearms that fall under the federal government’s ban.
