LOL, if you only knew who I drove for you would fall off your chair.
But I make crazy dollars and NO I can't carry a gun
I don't have any firearms in Canada, only secured in the USA. I have no use for a gun in Canada, I don't hunt up here.

And, Canada didn't. Damn gun control is once again proving to be a dud.

one of my favorite lines from an old forgotten movie dealt with two hoods who were imprisoned - one asks the other, if you're so tough, why do you use a gun instead of your fist?
the other guy replies, because it's more convenient
well, you know what it says in the Bible: God works in mysterious ways

Not sure that you are aware of the differences between canadian laws on knives and other countries like the UK and the USA?
In Canada, Blade length is not used to define a knife as a weapon. Instead, intent plays a huge role defining a weapon. This is good, because a machete on a boyscout can be legal, and a tiny little pocket knife tucked into the jacket of an inner city gang banger can be a weapon.
In the us a blade over a certain lenght can get you in trouble, and the uk is so trict, it is no longer low risk for a boyscout to take a long blade out to a campout.

It's a state issue. Usually 8 cm or so. Which is basically every knife, except for teeny fingernail cleaners.
Gives the state the ability to lock up anybody they don't like, and let the ones they do like slide.
8cm sucks, my favorite kitchen knifes are all in the 8 inches or longer range.

Though statistics prove time and again that disarming a free people leads to more violent crime and the potential for mass government democide, it hasn’t stopped President Barrack Obama and his Congressional entourage from doing everything in their power to make it more difficult for Americans to legally own firearms.
Citing the Sandy Hook mass shooting last year, democrats on the hill have claimed that we must restrict gun ownership and strip the Second Amendment for the safety of our children and the general public.
But a new report commissioned by the White House titled Priorities for Research to Reduce the Threat of Firearm-related Violence suggests what many self defense gun proponents have been saying for years. The report, ordered under one of President Obama’s 23 Executive Orders signed in the wake of the Sandy Hook incident, asked the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), the National Research Council and other federal agencies to identify the “most pressing problems in firearms violence.”
To the surprise of the authors and those who would no doubt have used the report to further restrict access to personal defense firearms, the study found that gun ownership actually saves lives and those who have a firearm at their disposal improve their chances of survival and reduce their chance of injury in the event they are confronted by a violent criminal:
Almost all national survey estimates indicate that defensive gun uses by victims are at least as common as offensive uses by criminals, with estimates of annual uses ranging from about 500,000 to more than 3 million per year…
…
The estimate of 3 million defensive uses per year is based on an extrapolation from a small number of responses taken from more than 19 national surveys. The former estimate of 108,000 is difficult to interpret because respondents were not asked specifically about defensive gun use.
A different issue is whether defensive use of guns, however numerous or rare they may be, are effective in preventing injury to the gun wielding crime victim. Studies that directly assessed the effect of actual defensive uses of guns (i.e., incidents in which a gun was “used” by the crime victim in the sense of attacking or threatening an offender) have found consistently lower injury rates among gun-using crime victims compared with victims who used other self protective strategies.

wow I thought churches were supposed to welcome the unfortunate, the downtrodden, the poor, the troubled, etc. Shooting someone that is obviously troubled does not seem very Christian to me. The guy wasn't even inside the church. Did no-one have a phone with which to call the cops?
sheeeesh
That is from last April. I am not even sure that Justine was thinking about the PM's cushy chair back then let alone able to order guns seized. HARPY DID IT!!
Besides my kitchen knives, which vary from 6 cm to 26 cm, I regularly use a Buck clasp-type knife for general gardening duty (it has a 10 cm blade), and a Buck Knight with a blade less than 5 cm. My hunting knife is a Ka-bar BK2 Companion with a 14 cm blade.
I ahve not stuck anyone with any of them yet. hehe
in theory churches are supposed to be for those purposes - but all too often they operate profitable businesses on a tax free basis, steal lands from Indigenous peoples throughout the world, harbor perverted preachers who rape little boys, and control politicians
ah well, nobody's perfect - after all in this day and age of political correctness we're not even supposed to say any of that, are we?
RCMP tests show some firearms can be converted to fully automatic - Politics - CBC News
The CBC article said RCMP head Paulson and then Public Safety Minister Blaney had discussed 6 types of guns the RCMP wanted to ban. And now I have a list:
RCMP’s Firearms Program to ban the following firearms: the SKS, the Ruger Mini-14/Mini-30, the Tavor TAR 21, the CZ-858 and the Norinco M-305 rifles. This from the Canadian Shooting Sports Association.
That is hundreds of thousands of firearms.
Here is the difference between a Liberal and a Conservative: Harper passed some very dubious laws including mandatory sentencing and C-51......but they were passed in Parliament and aimed at criminals and terrorists. Trudeau is passing a law giving the RCMP back the right to ban specific types of firearms, an act aimed squarely at licensed firearms owners.....who have been vetted, safety trained, background checked, licensed, and who have a murder rate less than one half that of the general population.........
So under Harper you get laws aimed at criminals.
Under Trudeau you get laws aimed at decent citizens.
But Harper was a dictator. Yeah, right.

I'm getting the idea you saw the election similar to what I saw. Maybe old Harper isn't quite as unpopular as some want to make out.
