Should pepper spray be legalised in canada?

Question

Do you want pepper spray to be legalised in canada for civilian use.

It is great for vulnerable women.

should pepper spray remain illegal?

Answer 1

I think it should remain illegal. Allowing people to carry weapons, which pepper spray should be considered, only breeds fear. Look what fear has done to our neighbours to the south. Plus, it can have terrible effects if used on the wrong person. If you are afraid in your community, perhaps a self defense course is in order, or maybe even relocation. If pepper spray is legalized for personal use, next it will be personal handguns and its all downhill from there.  

Answer 2

Actually, you can buy it legally.  In the form of dog repellant spray.  I have a can.  Due to the nature of my job, I need it.  I haven't used it yet.

Answer 3

I am against any kind of weapon, because everyone can claim they are vulnerable and want to have guns to protect themselves like in the US

Answer 4

It should be take off the list of prohibited devices and the criminal code should be amended to allow people to carry weapons for self defence concealed and openly.  Currently it is illegal to carry anything including legal objects for the purpose of self defence against human predators.  With the exception of a few judges, politicians and other important people who are licenced to carry handguns.  

Answer 5
