If the right to private property is unlimited, people die, just like with gun rights-. But Canada's doing something about it?

Are you against doing stuff that might make life safe for even the poor?
How do you think about Trudeau's statement-. That private property is not an unlimited right?

Canada doesn't have a constitution with the same protections as the US Constitution. It seems that Trudeau is opening the floor for confiscation or control of private property in Canada. Property can be seized in the US but the owner must be fairly compensated and with the exception of seizures in the name of the "war on drugs", that is something that doesn't happen frequently. In Canada, handguns are already restricted severely by the government. It is unlawful to carry a handgun, unlawful to discharge a handgun except at an approved range, this also disallows firing on private property. The only lawful use is for target shooting and collecting. Trudeau's stated reason for limiting handguns in Canada was the shooting in Uvalde Texas. I hope Canadians realize that the gun used in Uvalde was a rifle, not a handgun, the type of rifle used in Texas is already banned in Canada as well as 1500 other rifles. The right to bear arms is not protected by Canadian law, Canadians are at the mercy of Mr. Trudeau's anti gun ideology.

@MrBrownstone that isn't what he's asking of others. So deaths are okay! Babies dying-. You're for the high infant death rate so Elon can fly to Mars,! Very grown-up.

Sounds like step one of a massive asset seizure .
He said it's not "absolute" to be clear, before he went on to say that all the necessary steps for expropriation would be followed. I assume that means compensating the parties whose land is taken for a public purpose, just like in the US.

Back to the point, the right to own property is not [i]absolute[/i]. The Fifth Amendment even says that if it is confiscated, there has to be just compensation.

@MistyCee LoL. It means taking most of what each billionaire "owns". Taxing each huge corporation until it's not so huge.
It's so hard to picture normal for a Dem.
@Changeisgonnacome It sure looks to me like he's talking, or maybe trying to talk about seizing Russian assets and not primarily socialist wealth redistribution.

@MistyCee yes. It's a speech about oligarchy wealth, mainly foreigners.

You're trying to simplify it. It's much bigger than than.

@Spoiledbrat yeah-. Murka threatening everything is too big to fail. Try again-. That was empty.
Changeisgonnacome · 61-69, F
Murka means a certain level of poverty right next to huge wealth. Deal with it.
