Airsoft!?

Hey does anyone know whats happened to airsoft? Ive been a member on EAR and ASC for a while, and the other day i logged back in, and the sites are literally GUTTED! No more threads, no NOTHING. EVERY SINGLE canadian airsoft manufacturer's website is either down, closed or no longer existant. I remember reading somewhere a while back that airsoft in Canada was under debate, but they wern't sure how it was going down? Anyone know anything?

p.s: before posting, make sure you know what your talking about this is not to be confused with SOFTAIR those lil crapass guns from walmart and canadian tire.
