Rifle used in recent police killings not on Canada's list of banned firearms

The type of semi-automatic weapon used in the fatal shooting of two Ontario police officers has also been used in a series of other deadly, high-profile gun attacks in Canada, including the 2018 Fredericton mass shootings and the murders committed by the B.C. manhunt suspects. Despite this, the SKS rifle hasn't been added to the federal government's 2020 list of prohibited weapons.
