Neutral

Yes, but only by closing the gun show loophole

The gun show loophole is more of an issue in the United States and not as relevant in Canada. The Canadian Conservative party has not shown a strong stance on this specific issue, so it is unclear how they would feel about closing the gun show loophole.

Slightly disagree

Yes, require strict background checks, psychological testing, and training

While the Conservative party may support some measures to improve public safety, they may not agree with requiring strict background checks, psychological testing, and training for all gun purchases, as this could be seen as overly restrictive and burdensome on law-abiding citizens.

No, and the government should pass a national “stand your ground” law
