Torstar News Service Toronto mayoral candidate Olivia Chow said in an online chat that she agrees with the idea of a municipal handgun ban.
Mayoral candidate Olivia Chow says she supports a Toronto handgun ban.
In an online chat with Torstar News Service readers Wednesday, Chow said “yes” when asked if she backed a ban.
“Don’t see why ordinary citizens (not police) need them. Several 15-year-old kids were shot with handguns. We need to prevent violence,” she wrote.

Citing the example of Chicago, candidate David Soknacki argued that there is no evidence that municipal bans actually work. The violence-plagued city had a ban on the possession and sale of handguns for 28 years before it was ruled unconstitutional in 2010.
“I don’t see it as an effective way of reducing crime or violence,” Soknacki said.
Police Chief Bill Blair has offered a similar argument. “I don’t see that would be a solution to the problem,” he said in 2012, adding that he believes guns are already well-regulated in Canada.
The federal government makes criminal law, and council formally asked Parliament in 2008 to ban the possession and sale of handguns. No action was taken. Chow rival Karen Stintz said she supported that request, but she would not take a position this time, suggesting the issue is moot.
“(Chow) wasn’t on council at the time, so maybe she doesn’t realize we did it. But we’ve already done that,” Stintz said.
The idea of a local handgun ban was highly popular in a 2012 opinion poll. Three-quarters of residents supported the idea in a summer survey by Forum Research
邹至蕙（Olivia Chow，1957年3月24日－），加拿大华裔政治人物，现任加拿大国会下议院议员，曾任多伦多市议员长达14年（1991年—2005年）。她是加拿大新民主党党员，其夫婿为该党前党魁杰克·林顿。
邹至蕙生于香港，13岁时移居加拿大多伦多，于贵湖大学艺术系毕业后到多伦多大学进修哲学[1]。
炮弹：在一家香港人看的诊所上班，这个香港人是邹至蕙同学，邹至蕙年轻的时候，极其厌恶华人，后来嫁给林顿，林顿说和你结婚就是看中你的华裔身份，华裔的选票就靠你了，从此，邹至蕙一改之前的言论，现在成了华裔卫士，那个香港人知道她的过去，一提她就反感。
有一批hk和taiwan的人，觉得自己骂了“支那人”，就觉得这个“支那人”不包含香港人或台湾人？ 反正她的厌恶法，和这些骂中国人“支那人”的人没本质区别。这就是所谓的“香蕉人”
