Federal Firearms Classification Advisory Group Yet to Convene

An advisory group established to assist the Canadian federal government in its review of firearms classification has not yet conducted its inaugural meeting. This meeting is expected to take place this fall, nearly a year after the government revealed plans for the review. One of the significant tasks of this group will be to evaluate the status of various firearms, notably the SKS rifle. The delay has raised questions about the timeline and considerations surrounding firearms legislation in Canada, particularly in relation to public safety and gun policy. The federal government's commitment to this review reflects ongoing discussions about firearms regulations in the country, drawing attention from various stakeholders, including advocacy groups and concerned citizens.
