Canadians are a sneaky lot. Instead of an open rebellion we usually just
worm our way around the laws. When the GST was introduced (Goods & Services
Tax) it drove about half the service industry underground; when the price
of cigarettes reached $45 a carton the smuggling reached epidemic
proportions.
The city of Cornwall straddling the US border with a Mohawk Reserve in the
middle became the favourite running ground and Customs couldn't keep up.
If someone was caught with a truck load of illicit smokes the profits on
another load would more than cover the losses of the prior shipment plus
fines. I suspect the same thing is happening with firearms. Probably the
bulk of them find their way into the hands of honest citizens who think
the stupid laws have gone too far so they simply circumvent it. As long as
they can still do this the open rebellion will never materialize.
