>Canada proposes gun freeze
美枪击案后加拿大拟加强枪支管制

Canada should introduce a total ban on the buying and selling of handguns, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has said.
加拿大总理贾斯汀•特鲁多表示，加拿大应立法全面禁止手枪买卖。

His government is proposing a new law that would freeze private ownership of all short-barreled firearms.
特鲁多政府计划推出一项新法案，限制私人对各类短枪的所有权。

The legislation would not ban the ownership of handguns outright, but would make it illegal to buy them.
该法案不会完全剥夺私人对手枪的所有权，但是会立法禁止私人购买手枪。

Trudeau's proposal comes days after a deadly shooting at a Texas primary school in the neighboring US, which killed 21 people.
就在特鲁多提出该法案几天前，邻国美国得克萨斯州的一所小学发生了一起致命枪击案，导致21人死亡。

"Other than using firearms for sport shooting and hunting, there is no reason anyone in Canada should need guns in their everyday lives," Trudeau told reporters.
特鲁多告诉记者称：“除了用枪从事射击运动和打猎，加拿大的任何人在日常生活中都没有理由用到枪。”
