Attention all Members: 
A Revision to our Club Initiative in
Support of our Firearm Rights!

It has been recognized that existing members of the NFA, CSSA and CCFR also want to further support these firearms-rights organizations at this critical time - and the club would like to recognize their additional contribution to the fight as well.  Therefore, in addition to donating $10 for each new NFA, CSSA and CCFR membership, the LRGC will also donate $10 for each additional $50 donated to any of these groups by a LRGC member during the period Oct 1 through to Election Day!  
Membership and donations links can be found in the file in the message below.
Please forward proof of your donation to planning@lrgc.com 
So - to those existing members - please donate! 

Original Message: 

New Club Initiative! Action Needed! 

The Liberals have announced that they will initiate BANS on our legally-acquired and owned firearms if re-elected.  It is clear to anyone that is informed (e.g. the list of growing senior police chiefs/officials opposing these bans is getting longer by the day) that this will NOT reduce violence in Canada because criminals do not register their firearms or follow existing laws - but it will cost the tax-payer dearly for no benefit (current estimates for only a single class of firearm exceed $600 MILLION!). However, the facts are not important to the Liberal party as they have decided to do this now as they are desperately trying to draw attention away from their current corruption & scandal issues while trying to attract votes through fear from the uninformed and firearm-ignorant population.  Click below NOW to find out what YOU, as a legal firearm-owner, should do to counter this rediculous plan to take away your rights and property: 
URGENT ACTION NEEDED.pdf

Don't delay -  Please do your part!! 

New!  See images below for more info - and the number on the graph is zero !!! 

BTW - They won't come and get our hunting rifles - first they will call them "sniper rifles" (see below) - then they will come and get them (as is happening in Australia).
This will be no different than what they are doing for AR's by first falsely labeling  them as "assault rifles", when in fact, assault rifles have been banned in Canada for many decades! 

 

The Moral of the story is:
SUPPORT YOUR FIREARMS RIGHTS GROUPS and 
GET YOURSELF AND OTHERS OUT TO VOTE
TO PROTECT OUR SPORT!!

Forwarding: CSSA Bulletin - New release!  Liberals Announce Gun Bans

Election 2019: Liberals Announce Gun Bans

Tony Clement was right. Back in May of this year, the veteran M.P. announced a secret plan the Liberals had concocted to ban certain types of semi-automatic target rifles.

The CSSA's information concurred with former Minister Clement and we announced the plans to ban firearms in our publications immediately.

It appears we were correct!

At 11:40 EDT am today, Liberal leader Justin Trudeau, deflecting away from proven allegations of racism roaring through the media, announced his government would - if elected - "Ban military-style assault weapons and will conduct a buy back program of these types of firearms." He did not define what that nebulous term "military-style assault weapons" meant nor how the buy-back would be implemented.

He also will allow municipalities to ban handguns within their borders. Trudeau did not describe how this would be enforced or implemented.

Importantly, he did not state how constitution guarantees of equal application of the law to all Canadians would dovetail into increasing restrictions against urban firearms owners.

Don't the rights of lawful firearms owners count too?

Surrounded by a gaggle of M.P.s, hopefuls and Liberal supporters - and without a single representative of Canada's 2.2 million firearms owners - Trudeau proved (again) that only certain Canadians enjoy representation within the Liberal party.

And we aren't one of them.

Tony Bernardo, executive director of the Canadian Shooting Sports Association said,”It's disappointing, but typical for the Liberals to attack Canada's 2.2 million lawful firearms owners whenever they get into deep trouble. Canada's firearms community is the go-to “whipping boy” of the Liberal party- guaranteed to deflect attention away from the latest Liberal scandal of Justin Trudeau's racist past.”

Trudeau's hyperbolic rhetoric is purely designed to whip up public sentiment against our community, despite the statistical evidence that firearms owners are the most law-abiding people in our country.

Trudeau's announcement raises more questions than answers. The Liberals have been unable to define what an “military-style assault weapon” is, or their role within crime.

More to come!

Then go and Vote today. 

Yes, today. You don’t need to wait until October 21st.

You can vote TODAY at any Elections Canada office. All you need to know is the name of your candidate and you can vote using a “Special Ballot.”

You can also vote in the advance polls, which take place over the Thanksgiving long weekend.

Voting in Election 2019 is far too important to leave to the last minute. Avoid the long lineups on Election Day and vote early, either by Special Ballot at any Elections Canada office or at the Advance Polls on Thanksgiving weekend.
