Ron Ashmore for Mayor of Kawartha Lakes - @ronashmore1 We need more municipal politicians who understand these issues, recognize how government decisions affect their communities, and are willing to bring residents’ concerns to the council table. Local government matters - and informed representation starts at home. Ron Ashmore understands the concerns of his firearms-owning constituents and has taken action to represent them at the municipal level. At a time when law-abiding firearms owners are increasingly caught in the crosshairs of federal firearms policy, Ashmore has recognized the importance of standing up for their interests and ensuring their voices are heard. His record speaks for itself. On January 27, 2026, he brought forward a memorandum opposing the federal firearms buyback program, which was unanimously passed by Kawartha Lakes Council. The Memorandum was as follows: January 27, 2026 Recommendation: That the City of Kawartha Lakes objects to the firearm buyback program as it is currently being mandated and implemented through local police services; and That a copy of this resolution be sent to MP Jamie Schmale, the Public Safety Minister Gary Anandasangaree, and the RT Hon. PM Mark Carney. Rationale The Government of Canada is currently implementing an ongoing firearms “buyback” program. There are 2.5 million licensed gun owners in Canada. These include hunters, farmers, sport shooters and First Nations peoples. Overview of the Program includes prohibited firearms, amnesty period, disposal options, and compensation. The program has faced significant criticism and opposition. Several Police Services, Police Chiefs, Police Unions, provinces, territories and municipalities have opposed these measures on our legal firearms owners. Police organizations, academics, and firearms advocacy groups have argued that the program is misguided and will not reduce gun crime in our communities. The projected cost is currently $750 million but could potentially cost $6 billion if fully implemented. A pilot program in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia resulted in only 25 guns being bought back by the government, and all of them were legally acquired guns by hunters and collectors. While we support and laud the Federal Government in their efforts to remove illegal weapons from the public, a more reasoned and less intrusive way needs to be found. If elected mayor, Ashmore has also committed to advancing the following policies: -Calling on the federal government to stop the Prohibition and Confiscation of our legally acquired firearms -The focus for all government authorities should be on smuggling and crime, not legal licensed gun owners. -Protect our local sport shooters and support our hunters -Change our local bylaws to reduce our local government inspection fees, dictating the size of property to discharge and limiting your shots per day. -Will revamp existing municipal anti-gun bylaws by having public input from the firearms community. -Will support castle laws to protect your family, property, and business. These are the kinds of commitments we like to see from municipal leaders: a clear understanding of the issues, a willingness to stand up for law-abiding firearms owners, and a commitment to meaningful action at the local level. Kawartha Lakes, remember Ron Ashmore on Voting Day, October 26th.

Thank you. I hope this gets the attention it deserves. @CanadasNFA

Call it a hunch, but when someone shoots their own accomplice during an alleged home invasion, I’m willing to bet we’re not dealing with legal, trained firearms owners. -The Moderator 𝐒𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐧 𝐬𝐮𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐬 𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐚 𝐬𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐛𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐤-𝐢𝐧𝐬 𝑀𝑒𝑡𝑟𝑜 𝑁𝑒𝑤𝑠𝑝𝑎𝑝𝑒𝑟 𝗢𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝟭𝟵, 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲 journalmetro.com/local/sud-o…

Just a daily reminder that criminals continue to easily acquire crime guns, while law-abiding, licensed firearms owners remain sidelined by Trudeau’s May 2020 OIC. It is now 6 years, 5 months, 19 days since we’ve been able to take our lawfully acquired, now-prohibited firearms to the range or into the woods. Meanwhile, statistically, gun/violent crime has actually gone up... -The Moderator 𝟏𝟎 𝐬𝐮𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐬 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐨 ‘𝐯𝐢𝐨𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐭’ 𝐚𝐮𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐟𝐭 𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐢𝐧 𝐏𝐞𝐞𝐥 𝐑𝐞𝐠𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐟𝐚𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝟏𝟐𝟖 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐠𝐞𝐬 𝑃ℎ𝑖𝑙 𝑇𝑠𝑒𝑘𝑜𝑢𝑟𝑎𝑠, 𝐶𝑇𝑉 𝑁𝑒𝑤𝑠 𝗢𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝟭𝟵, 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲 ctvnews.ca/toronto/article/1…

Trudeau effectively banned handguns in 2022. And yet, criminals keep getting them. Who could possibly have predicted that people who ignore the law might ignore another law? Meanwhile, legitimate national-level competitors in IPSC, PCC and Western Cowboy Shooting have had their sports effectively taken away - despite years of training, dedication, and personal investment. They followed the rules, played by the book, and now find themselves paying the price for the actions of people who never cared about the rules in the first place. -The Moderator 𝐓𝐰𝐨 𝐀𝐫𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐀𝐟𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐆𝐮𝐧𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐞 𝐈𝐧𝐯𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐠𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐢𝐧 𝐓𝐨𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐨 𝑅𝐸𝐷 88.9𝐹𝑀 𝗢𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝟭𝟵, 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲 redfm.ca/en-ca/toronto/news-…

Banned from owning guns. Banned from driving. Apparently, nobody told him. So, when exactly did we decide that more bans would stop people who already ignore them? Meanwhile, “Grandpa Joe” is contacting us in an anxious mess, fretting over the upcoming amnesty deadline and terrified the firearms he's lawfully owned for decades will suddenly make him a criminal. -The Moderator 𝐓𝐰𝐨 𝐦𝐞𝐧 𝐟𝐚𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐬𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐥 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐠𝐞𝐬 𝐚𝐟𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐢𝐧𝐯𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐠𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐢𝐧 𝐋𝐚𝐤𝐞𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝑀𝑒𝑙𝑎𝑛𝑖𝑒 𝐾𝑒𝑛𝑡𝑛𝑒𝑟, 𝐶𝑇𝑉 𝑁𝑒𝑤𝑠 𝗢𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝟭𝟵, 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲 ctvnews.ca/windsor/article/t…

One individual’s actions can have consequences for all lawful firearm owners. While this may appear to be a cut-and-dried case, the use of firearm photographs as evidence of wrongdoing raises concerns about how such material could be interpreted - or taken out of context - in the future. The precedent this sets should concern every responsible firearms owner. The CBC’s omission of important details also deserves scrutiny. -The Moderator 𝐌𝐚𝐧 𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐢𝐧 𝐋𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐨𝐧, 𝐎𝐧𝐭., 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐬𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐩𝐡𝐨𝐭𝐨𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐦𝐬 𝐶𝐵𝐶 𝑁𝑒𝑤𝑠 𝗢𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝟭𝟴, 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲 cbc.ca/news/canada/london/po… Related: londonpolice.ca/news/posts/t…

Just your daily reminder: It’s been 6 years, 5 months, 2 weeks, and 1 day since Trudeau’s ( Now Carney's) OIC firearms bans left law-abiding firearms owners unable to use their legally acquired firearms - while criminals, including those known and banned from possessing guns, easily continue to obtain - and use - them. -The Moderator 𝐃𝐫𝐮𝐠 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐟𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐦𝐬 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐠𝐞𝐬 𝐥𝐚𝐢𝐝 𝐟𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐨𝐰𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐎𝐏𝐏 𝐬𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐜𝐡 𝐢𝐧 𝐄𝐬𝐩𝐚𝐧𝐨𝐥𝐚 𝐸𝑙𝑙𝑖𝑜𝑡 𝐿𝑎𝑘𝑒𝑇𝑜𝑑𝑎𝑦 𝑆𝑡𝑎𝑓𝑓 𝗢𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝟭𝟱, 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲 elliotlaketoday.com/opp-beat…

⚠️ Canadian gun owners should be watching Carney’s proposed EU partnership closely. Neither Switzerland nor Norway is an EU member, yet both were required to adopt EU firearms restrictions. Could Canada face similar obligations affecting semi-automatic firearms, folding stocks, firearm marking, and magazine capacities? Will Carney explicitly protect Canadian firearms laws from EU regulatory alignment, or does his government intend to use the agreement to advance further gun control in Canada? @CanadasNFA

Sadly, it appears that some American tourists are unaware of Canada’s firearms laws and inadvertently cross the border with handguns. Good catch on this. However, let’s not pretend that posts like this demonstrate meaningful progress in stemming the massive flow of illegally smuggled handguns into Canada, which continues to fuel violence, death, and destruction across the country. @CanadasNFA

From Sheila Gunn Reid - @SheilaGunnReid and Rebel News - @RebelNewsOnline More costly weirdness out of Ottawa. Regardless of your politics or your views on today's gender zeitgeist, using a new gun-control law (C-21) to fund a project promoting red flag laws in the wake of recent 'events' involving certain-identifying perpetrators seems remarkably insensitive to the victims and their families. -The Moderator 𝐖𝐡𝐲 𝐢𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐠𝐮𝐧-𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐟𝐢𝐬𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐝𝐞𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐟𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚 '𝐓𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐩𝐡𝐨𝐛𝐢𝐚 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐑𝐞𝐝 𝐅𝐥𝐚𝐠 𝐋𝐚𝐰𝐬' 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐣𝐞𝐜𝐭?

From Prince Edward Island, another fine example of the wonderful, threatening government rhetoric we've come to expect from the Liberals. “No, it's not mandatory—but fail to comply, and we'll punish you to the fullest extent of the law.” Apparently, it's voluntary.
