Quote:
It is worth noting that over the course of the gun control debate in Canada the emphasis has shifted from "sporting use" and "hunting" as valid reasons for owning firearms to "personal protection". The logic of this shift is unavoidable; sports, even hunting are not protected by either the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms or the UN Declaration of Human Rights. Personal protection is protected by both.
