The numbers I am using are not factual...just presented to make a point. Out of every 1000 voters in Alberta....500 don't like handguns and would never support "looser" regulation....Of the remaining 500, 20 are hunters, and only 3 of them own handguns. Unless there is some mitigation of the the percieved threat, and ethical kill concerns related to the use of handguns for hunting, it will never gain enough steam to get political attention. We've heard some support for a "petition" ...so get on with it. But before you do, think about the potential results. 5000 signatures out of 500,000 voters will tell government there is little support.
