As much as I generally dislike Harper I admired his stand against his government's own firearms advisory committee. Canada does not need to relax its gun laws.

Prime Minister Stephen Harper has issued an unexpected rebuke to his government's own firearms advisory committee, rejecting its recommendations and suggesting the group's membership may need revisiting.
"Let me be as clear as I can be," the prime minister said in response to a question from NDP Leader Tom Mulcair.
"Prohibited weapons exist as a category under the law for essential reasons of public security. The government has absolutely no intention of weakening that category of protections."
