Noooooo! Just sell them to a US importer.

I don't know their worth, but at $500 each, Canadian military will give up $5.5 million rather than sell to US collectors. Dumb.

What do you think we have chopped up and melted over the last 75 years?

Yeah that one makes me scratch my head. I would only assume that either politics in Canada, here or something to do with the FATF made it impossible to import these or possibly a perfect storm of all of the above.

That's a lot of money for a cash strapped military to leave on the table

A government is involved. They just "think" what is the dumbest thing we can do and that's it.

Canada sucks and that's a real shame they're going to destroy that many HP's from WWII.

Come on guys.
The Trudeau government is not going to allow gun sales, when they can just tax the peasants some more.

Its 100% pure smooth brain leftist politics. Selling them would simply move the pain and suffering of gun violence to another society/country. They cant have that.

For the good of humanity, they MUST be destroyed. I wouldnt be surprised if they insisted on burying the resulting molten steel in a grave somewhere just so that metal couldnt possibly contaminate any other object with the evil. Maybe even put up a a headstone for the likes of AOC to go cry over.

There is no purple.

We need the western provinces (sans BC) to join the US, screw Ontario.

I’m beginning to believe that most Canadians are really as depicted on South Park, bumbling loud mouthed boobs who love to run around farting!
If nothing else they could destroy the frames and sell the rest as parts.
Canadians are bad ….. mkay!

Canada......
Well, we knew they had no culture...

Now we know they have no class.

 

[Cavman]

Iam shocked they let their rangers keep their enfield. 303s

 

[Expat]

**** Canada!

 

[Peacekeeper3073]

How many think Biden will see this and then lookout for an executive order ending military surplus going public. First victims, the 1911 and CMP.

 

[Cavman]

Surprised they're just not sending them to Ukraine

That would be a more fitting end for iconic militaria than being chopped up and melted down by a bunch of simps.

Entrepreneurialism is obviously Dead among Canucks.
They could Sell these to Zelenskyy- he Has the Cash to Buy em (with some of that $60 Billion the US just sent him)
Trudeau could Pocket 10%.
Another Opportunity Lost, Eh!
