Getting a personalized revolver with his name engraved on it from Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan was “not what I expected,” Prime Minister Mark Carney said on Thursday.
Carney said he “never saw it” until British Prime Minister Kier Starmer told him about the presents.
“I learned about it and then of course my colleagues told me, ‘Yeah, we had this.’ And it’s not what I expected,” he added.

Erdogan offered the engraved handguns as a gift to Carney and other NATO leaders at the NATO summit in Ankara, Turkiye.
Carney said he gave Erdoğan a bottle of Canadian maple syrup in return.
Canadian government officials have not said what kind of handgun Carney was gifted, but say the pistol will be decommissioned and the gun will be placed in a museum. Officials also said the ammunition was left in Turkiye.

“I certainly don’t have a licence for it,” Carney said.
Any gift received by a politician worth more than $200 must be publicly declared, and any gift worth more than $1,000 must be forfeited to the Crown under Canada’s conflict of interest rules.
A placard in the gift box says this was the first type of revolver manufactured in Turkiye in the 1990s and that the commemorative firearms were made by Turkish firm MKE.
A spokesperson from Nauseda’s office said that his gifted revolver is planned for exhibition in the Presidential Palace, like many other gifts given to the head of state.

Vacation meaning, I get a week off from my McDonald’s job. I am moving into a cheap motel on East Hastings, and giving blow jobs to every chug that’s tenting within 1000 ft. of me. I don’t care about STD’s anymore. I am Super Jay.
Anyways I’m going on vacation starting tomorrow 😊 I just had to come around and own your little Nazl whiteboy a$$ one more time before I fly out. Have fun pretending to be me LOL
P.S. Thanks for being my bltch. I had a blast 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Seriously keep it coming Nazl boy. Things are pretty slow at Bridge Studios today. All You’re helping me do is kill time while I make $70 an hour 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
It must really suck being a lonely inbred whiteboy living in the middle of nowhere. Wasting your life away on the internet 24/7. Fighting for your white nationalist freedumb and nobody is listening. The only attention you get is from some dude in Vancouver that laughs hysterically at how desperate and triggered you are every time you copy his name 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Wow you’re really digging deep there Nazl boy. I must’ve really struck a nerve LOL
Where-as I will be getting stupid drunk and high, and probably gang-raped by the whole chug reserve by Cap bridge!
I’m Luvin it!
Hahahaha you’re going to be alone all weekend 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I am the real Jay Vorhees, and I just got my azz filled with the c um from James Bilodeau in Kelowna. Sorry James, you might have MonkeyPox and HIV now.
Global is a disgusting fascist rag. It allows Roy Stephenson and all his whacko accounts to spew disgusting garbage comments, but, deletes conversation dealing with truth. Global should be shut down and investigated.

The real Jay Voorhees will be down at Stanley Park hanging with a group of ladies while the fake Jay Voorhees will be sitting around in his shlthole town in the middle of nowhere by himself 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I need a gift of MonkeyPox ointment is what I need. F *uck this sh *t burns!
Don’t ever accept the kebab of a half-chug up your azz.
Of course on the flipside white Christian priests have been molesting children for the past century in Canada and they never get convicted. Hmmmm that’s weird…
I hear a corrupt judge in BC, which appears to be all judges in BC, has given house arrest to an immigrant for sexually assaulting someone.
Obviously, should be deported, but if I ever cross paths with them, I will not be contacting authorities.
In other news, an Indoctrination Camp called public education in Toronto forced kuds to make Progress Flags, which are essentially bigot flags and had the audacity to call them Pride flags.
Needless to say, see that flag, do what must be done.
What a wuss. He “certainly” doesnt have a firearms licence. Go back to Britain.

Duhhh my mommy told me I have a high IQ. Now I spend my lonely pathetic life on the internet copying people’s names. Duhhh constitooshunel rites. Alberta Strong! Alberta proud!
Hey buddy, why wait for the separation vote? Folks like yourself, can leave at anytime!
Erdogan is trying to tell the leaders to grow a pair
He was offended by his gift because it reminded him of all the Canadians he’s rear-ended, and he couldn’t trade it for more Pfizer stock.
Hey Anonymous,
You are gonna lose some day, and there will be nowhere for you to hide.
…and now for some Liberal emotions…

You sick bas**rd. I hope the RCMP are monitoring this comments section and look you up in the Liberal Party of Canada.
Liberals don’t care if you have a license. They will just ban whatever you own.
Guns make great gifts for Canadians with their PAL providing the law is adhered to.
People that are afraid of guns should never be permitted to own them as they would be a dangwr to themselves or others.
What was he expecting? Something edible he doesn’t have to hand over to government?
Terrible gift to receive by anyone at any time and in any place.
It’s a shame his predecessor enacted his “handgun freeze”. Turkiye is known for firearms of a craftsmanship that can only be described as art. The decommissioning process will destroy its value. While the purpose of forfeiture of gifts to the crown is fine, we could probably raise the $1000 limit without any concern, the real issue is that $1k is pocket change to most of our elected officials.
That seems like a bit of a tacky gift, in my opinion. Of course, some people will like it, and others will be offended. A gun is not just a tool, but a tool designed to kill.
Duhhh my mommy told me I have a high IQ. Now I spend my lonely pathetic life on the internet copying people’s names. Duhhh constitooshunel rites. Alberta Strong! Alberta proud!
Lol imagine being so f**king stupid that your only comeback is to copy someone’s name and then you can’t even do that right until you’re called out for it 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
More comments from people who didnt actually read the article 🙄
Turkey is an ally, and NATO member, not a fascist state.
A gun is a tool, just like you and we don’t call you a fascist.
Man, are all these fascist leaders nuts like that? Just give em all a gun and ammunition, at a NATO meeting. Hahahahahahahahahahahaha1 Thats too funny. Was he hoping they would all shoot each other?
Don’t mind me,this story was the closest thing I could find as an outlet for my raging TDS.Because I am so unstable it either this or getting arrested again for running around my neighborhood, buck naked ,committing lewd acts with various forms of shrubbery at 2:30 am.
I flushed a conservative today

MAJORITY GOVERNMENT YOU WHINING CON GOOFS.
Proof positive that Liberals are ugly, angry f*scists. Forever taunting, jeering, running off at the mouth. Forever showing that shoe size IQ of theirs. Nothing but immature little trumpys running all over the place.
Hi ,my name is Ben.I am an automated bot programmed to give positive comments about Mark Carney to counter the truth .
The white supremacist Conservatives are trying so hard and failing even harder. Maybe if they weren’t a bunch of inbred rednecks they’d be smart enough to win an election but from what I’ve seen in this comment section that definitely isn’t happening anytime soon LOL
If you’re going to make up stories about me being a half-chug that works at McDonalds at least you can get my name right LOL. Showing off that high IQ again hey dumbass 🤣🤣
MAJORITY GOVERNMENT YOU WHINING CON GOOFS.
Being a Liberal, Carney probably pinched the revolver with two fingers and said ” Eww ,a gun.”
Carney has just been busy sucking everyone’s co ck. Not that there’s anything wrong with that in a way. At work, I suck a lot of co ck in the stalls at McDonald’s. Every customer leaves happy.
Carney handled this well diplomatically given our gun laws.

What an insult to the Turks. They must be snickering about what a bunch of pansys Canadians are that they can’t even defend themselves. But we got tampons in mens army washrooms…
You know what, I really don’t care. As long as my azz is getting well filled with c um from my half-chug boyfriend, all is well.
Jay Vorhees, its the left that commit political violence. You can project all you want but your side is the side of derangement and murder
Buddy better have his PAL or toss it to the RCMP when he gets back.
Typical Canadian news story. No mention of WHAT was presented but a lot of hype with no information. It was a Gümüşay .357 Magnum.
Produced by Kürtün Silah Sanayii ve Ticaret A.Ş. (KÜSSAN) in Gümüşhane, Türkiye. The factory is no longer in operation, making the revolver somewhat of a rare collector’s item.
Has Carney passed the Canadian Firearms Safety Course and obtained his PAL licence to own or possess a firearm ?? If not then he is illegally possessing and owning a firearm under the Canadian Criminal Code and should be prosecuted. Just as he is so quick to threaten lawful firearm owners in Canada. Will he be charged by the RCMP on arrival in Canada ? No, Why ? Because we all know there is a double standard when it comes to the Liberal elites in Canada.
Don’t worry. He’s not a MAGA/ICE supporter so he won’t be shooting anyone
I think this is a horrible idea considering criminals should not be given firearms
Be interating to see how they spin his violation of Canadian law after pandering to all the anti gun nuts
