- Following the news Friday morning that the federal government had withdrawn amendments G4 and G46 in firearms Bill C-21, OFAH Manager of Policy Mark Ryckman spoke with Ontario OUT of DOORS Magazine.
“We’re pleased that the Liberal government has recognized the negative implications of the proposed amendments and have withdrawn them from consideration.
