'The day this legislation goes into effect, it will no longer be possible to buy, sell, transfer or import handguns in Canada,' said the prime minister, Justin Trudeau. 
The government will also require long-gun magazines to be altered so that they can hold no more than five rounds, and will ban the sale and transfer of large-capacity magazines
