Section 26 states you have the right to enjoy property. Not own.
Any and all property can be confiscated through legal avenues.
This is of concern to canadian firearms owners, because in the past firearms have been confiscated through the registry with no compensation made.
The registration of firearms has proven time and time again to be a precursor to confiscation, even after elected officials deny this to be the case. This resentment towards lying officials and lack of true property rights is but one of the main reasons why firearms owners in Canada are strongly opposed to a registry, especially since the registry never does what it's promised to do, that is save lives and solve crime.
Registration and licensing always, always leads to confiscation of "property" of law abiding citizens.
