Canadian guest says 2020 order reclassified his AR-15 as prohibited overnight

What was said

"And overnight through signing that what we call an OIC, an order and council, they banned it completely overnight. They reclassified it, making it prohibited. So, I became a criminal overnight, legally speaking, a criminal."

An unidentified Canadian guest says a 2020 Order in Council reclassified firearms including his AR-15 from “restricted” to “prohibited”, which he says made him a criminal “legally speaking”, though he says an amnesty was put in place pending a buyback. He claims the buyback has not yet purchased any firearms and alleges projected costs rose from about C$200 million to more than C$1 billion, while additional models were later added to the ban list.
