Walmart Canada will stop selling machetes — a type of weapon frequently used in violent crimes — in stores across the country, after Manitoba’s government pressured the retailer to restrict online sales.
The company “will no longer sell long-bladed weapons Canada-wide,” spokesperson Felicia Fefer said Wednesday night in an email.
“We’re currently removing them from sale in our stores and online.”
Fefer noted the company’s Manitoba stores already did not offer in-person sales of long-bladed weapons.
