Action Item # 15:
Support the Canadian Taxpayer Association as they enter the Legal Fray:
Taking the gun ban and buyback to court
We all want a safer Canada, but buying back guns from licenced gun owners won’t stop criminals
So we need your help to save taxpayers’ money by taking Ottawa to court.
The Trudeau government’s gun ban won’t make Canadians safer, but it WILL waste hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars.
Even worse, the Trudeau government imposed these new regulations without holding a vote in Parliament.
Ottawa is ducking accountability yet again.
Canadians aren’t going to stand for it. In fact, at least one has already launched a court challenge to these new regulations.
Cassandra Parker, who owns a small business in Prince George, B.C., has launched a legal challenge in the Federal Court against the new gun buyback. She needs all the help she can get.
We want to jump into the court fight as interveners to support her.
We’ve done this before: to fight the carbon tax; to fight for the right of the Ontario government to shrink Toronto city council; and for the right of provincial governments to refuse pay raises for employees.
Whenever we’ve shown up in court, the CTF has been there to represent a point of view that no one else will: taxpayers.
We’re lucky to have an outstanding lawyer, James Plotkin, representing us as we seek permission from the court to intervene.
Normally, the legal fees for a case like this are extremely expensive, but James has given us a deep discount. So we need to raise $21,000 by the end of June to make sure we are ready to file documents before court deadlines.

We know that to fight for you, we need to use all the tools we have and that includes going to court to make sure your voice is heard.
Thank you as always for your support!
Aaron, Todd, Shannon and the entire CTF team
