Urgent: calling all action shooting competitors

[awndray]

I've received this by email from a local club match organizer, and I see on CGN. May as well share here.

For some reason some people think that IPSC is the only discipline in the game, but at least IDPA , PPC and DCRA were mentioned in the body of the text.

Urgent action needed today June 1st 2022 to save IPSC No fooling around.

There is of course bill c-21 which is a full press attack in handguns . But there is a more present issue RIGHT NOW !!!!

To effect the shut down of the handgun sports and to give a full stop to IPSC the Liberals have introduced a Regulation yesterday and it is being ushered through the HoC an dSenate now , right now. It will stop all handgun transfers. But it has exemptions. One exemption is the Olympic handgun shooters. I have attached the regulation . What is missing are the msin handguns sports in Canada. Those are IPSC, IDPA , PPC and DCRA service pis

They Must be included in the exemptions NOW , This regulation can be hanged IF all of the competitors and all of their influential friend IMMEDIATELY get going and put their time and money into contacting all MP's and Senators. NOW

Please spread this Today

The fact is the regulation is before Parliament and can be passed quickly Then its over. Lets show all the strenth we have.

This can make a difference.

Hate to say it but, if the biggest petition in the history of online Parliamentary petitions didn't give the Liberals so much as an itch, there's no way some letters to MP's is going to make a difference. I communicate with my MP and MPP regularly. All I get is platitudes.

To the usual suspects, call me a pessimist all you want. Look at the bright side. With guns going out the door, at least you can still play guns in the Metaverse. Right?

Petitions don’t mean squat.

IPSC has always been that way, but it's a good sign that they're giving recognition to the other pistol shooting sports.

If you didn't give them power over your perception of reality, you'd know the Liberals aren't the supreme authority in the universe.

Just because you haven't perceived the Liberals having moved doesn't mean nothing has happened.

Daily we have more and more confirmation of discontent with the Liberals across multiple dimensions that suggests Trudeau's downfall is coming:
The most influential Canadian of our generation (Jordan Peterson) despises Trudeau.
Two of the most internationally influential people on the planet (Elon Musk and Joe Rogan) think Trudeau is a dictator.
He can't go anywhere - from B.C. to Atlantic Canada, without being met by protesters.
He's reviled internationally except by the most corrupt oligrarchs.

The only thing keeping Trudeau in power is the network of lies and liars (especially the CBC) that inflate the bubble that isolate him from reality.

Trudeau is creating a powder keg for himself where one day he will be the architect of his own spectacular downfall.

All we have to do is be patient, vigilant and not give him (or his handlers and enablers) the power to influence our perceptions.

Something good is going to happen.

We may not know when but we can know for certain it will.

I'll stop calling you a pessimist, Awndray... maybe an anhedonic

So... IPSC and IDPA and PPC and DCRA and Olympians should get exemptions, but screw Joe Average non-competitive handgun owner?

Disgusting. Deserves to fail, and it will.

[Smc]

Exactly. What about ODPL? How about IMSSU or IHMSA.

Shortsighted, including a few others to try to help your cause and throwing everyone else under the bus.

We've done a ton of petitions before that have all resulted in jack squat. The liberals don't care. They don't care about gun owners..not one little bit. They will always actively try to do damage to us to garner votes from non gun owners. Being successful with a petition would require them to be receptive to reason. They aren't. Their intentions with all these new restrictions is not to be reasonable. Their intentions are to look like they're doing something about criminals, and a bonus for them is that they know they piss off the people who openly bash them at every turn and won't vote for them under any circumstances. If you want to give Turd n Co a good laugh, send them a petition saying they're not doing it right.

When it says in the bill that certain exemptions will be made for professionals I believe it mentioned the olympics specifically, but I don’t recall it mentioning the other disciplines by name. I doubt that was an accident.
I will be more than surprised if anything other than Olympic athletes get an exemption.
That way the clown can say that there is an exemption for pros, but there really is not.

[awndray]

The argument from Wolverine and Berlew is that IPSC is trying to be accepted into the Olympics. Personally, I don't care for IPSC. And the fact that they're making their argument simply because they think they're special enough to maybe be considered as an exception, is enough for me to continue not caring for IPSC.

PPC and to a less extent IPSC, is my main competitions, aka relaxation, and I rather that not change

But F my mental health says the government, and by & large - canadians.

And what if you take a break for any reason example: family, health, finances. I drive a stock car and took this year off to focus on my kids more this summer. Should i surrender my high hp none highway car until i can compete...
