So airsoft was probably dumped in there because of the Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police (CACP) requests made in 2000 against "replica guns".
The CACP recently came out as against a handgun ban, so I suspect this may have been an attempt to get them to quiet down. Now that it looks like the gov't is going to try and say "guys, orange tips are fine", they're coming out again against the handgun ban.
