1. The Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms guarantees the rights and freedoms set out in it subject only to such reasonable limits prescribed by law as can be demonstrably justified in a free and democratic society.
Pick your brains with that. And dont say that "oh that was 1982". Its still our constitution.

A charter challenge would be a last resort weapon here, especially on a clause 1 footing. It is very easy to argue that Replicas of all types pose a greater danger to society, than it impedes the rights of a select few. Then again, it depends on who is sitting on the SCC when its brought to bare.
