A new one from @IanRunkle So, a CPC member has advanced Bill C-293 to try to curtail the problem of home invasions in Canada. Will it work? (Probably not). Let's talk about it. Will Bill C-293 Stop Home Invasions? Will It Help? A Lawyer Explains youtu.be/1k4eWXBXmIE?si=nmoc…

While independent media seems to be more complimentary to home self-defence cases, with this one in particular lauding the "Homeowner, who bravely defended their property", mainstream media seem, at best, a little more vague - at worst, questioning - citing a "physical altercation where a shotgun was discharged". Funny how the framing changes depending on who you are reading... -The Moderator 𝗦𝗵𝗼𝘁𝗴𝘂𝗻 𝗗𝗶𝘀𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗴𝗲𝗱 𝗶𝗻 𝗛𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗜𝗻𝘃𝗮𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗶𝗻 𝗭𝗼𝗿𝗿𝗮 𝗧𝗼𝘄𝗻𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽, 𝗢𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗿𝗶𝗼 𝘌𝘩!

So, just to be clear, according to the CBC, the gun-for-hire shootings aren't the fault of sport shooters, hunters or collectors - But if you make it to paragraph three, apparently it's Donald Trump and Netanyahu's fault. Maybe the Liberals should pass legislation banning them from owning guns. Should have about the same effect... -The Moderator 𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗮 𝘀𝗽𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗴𝘂𝗻-𝗳𝗼𝗿-𝗵𝗶𝗿𝗲 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝗼𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝗧𝗼𝗿𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗼 𝘄𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗹𝗶𝗸𝗲𝗹𝘆 𝗽𝗮𝗶𝗱 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗯𝘆 𝗜𝗿𝗮𝗻 𝘑𝘰𝘯𝘢𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘯 𝘎𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘴𝘦, 𝘈𝘭𝘣𝘦𝘳𝘵 𝘓𝘦𝘶𝘯𝘨, 𝘊𝘉𝘊 𝘕𝘦𝘸𝘴 𝙊𝙘𝙩𝙤𝙗𝙚𝙧 𝟮𝟳, 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲 cbc.ca/news/investigates/ira…

A Vancouver criminal outs himself by being dressed like a Teletubbie on a hot summer day. The real question is: where did the handgun come from? The Liberals banned handgun sales and transfers in 2022. Even before that, legal handgun ownership was subject to stringent regulations. So, where did this one come from? Pretty hard to believe it was legally purchased prior to 2022 and monitored since. Funny how the people who follow the rules are the ones who get buried, while the criminals just seem to 'find a way'. -The Moderator 𝗩𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗼𝘂𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗣𝗼𝗹𝗶𝗰𝗲 𝗩𝗶𝗴𝗶𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗱𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗙𝗶𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗺𝘀 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘃𝗶𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: 𝟰𝟲 𝗠𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗵𝘀 𝘈𝘱𝘯𝘢 𝘕𝘦𝘸𝘴, 𝘗𝘰𝘭𝘪𝘤𝘦 𝘙𝘦𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘴𝘦 𝙊𝙘𝙩𝙤𝙗𝙚𝙧 𝟮𝟲, 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲 apnanews.ca/vancouver-police…

Banned from possessing guns? Yep. Got his hands on another gun within 48 hours of being caught with a gun? And a banned handgun to boot? How?! Oh, right. Criminals don't follow the law. That's kind of what makes them criminals. -The Moderator 𝗖𝗮𝗹𝗴𝗮𝗿𝘆 𝗺𝗮𝗻 𝗮𝗿𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗹𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗻 𝟰𝟴 𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗿𝘀 𝗮𝗳𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗿𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗲 𝗳𝗮𝗰𝗲𝘀 𝗻𝗲𝘄 𝗴𝘂𝗻, 𝗱𝗿𝘂𝗴 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗴𝗲𝘀 𝘕𝘦𝘸𝘴 𝘚𝘵𝘢𝘧𝘧, 𝘊𝘪𝘵𝘺 𝘕𝘦𝘸𝘴 𝙊𝙘𝙩𝙤𝙗𝙚𝙧 𝟮𝟲, 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲 calgary.citynews.ca/2026/10/…

The RCMP released this photograph of its officers training, and we would be remiss if we didn't offer a little friendly advice: perhaps someone should go over the fundamentals of pistol handling with this officer. We'd suggest a civilian RPAL course, but there's just one problem: the Liberals' handgun freeze. Funny how the government can make it harder for ordinary Canadians to access handgun training while the people entrusted with enforcing firearms laws are the ones making headlines for their "technique".

A sickening end to a criminal enterprise that manipulated a teenager into destroying his own life by carrying out murder and a series of shootings. An innocent man is dead, and children have been exploited into ruining their lives, while those who orchestrated this violence operated from the shadows. Meanwhile, Canada's law-abiding firearms owners continue to pay the price for the actions of criminals. When will the focus shift from punishing the law-abiding to pursuing those who actually commit these crimes? -The Moderator 𝗧𝗲𝗲𝗻 𝘀𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗱 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝟭𝘀𝘁-𝗱𝗲𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗲 𝗺𝘂𝗿𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝗶𝗻 𝗱𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗵 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗰𝗸 𝗱𝗿𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗮𝘁 𝗦𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗯𝗼𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵 𝗴𝗮𝘀 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝘊𝘉𝘊 𝘕𝘦𝘸𝘴 𝙊𝙘𝙩𝙤𝙗𝙚𝙧 𝟮𝟯, 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲 cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/s…

An “automatic machine gun”—that’s a WWII MP40. Whether it’s real or a replica, or where it came from is unknown. That being said, yet another fine specimen of humanity, apparently known to authorities, is picked up, armed to the teeth, while our sport shooters, collectors, and hunters are held accountable for his actions—and those of people like him. It should be noted that the CBSA gets excited and posts about seizing six guns in a two-month period, while Peel has seized 136 firearms so far this year. -The Moderator 𝗠𝗮𝗻 𝗔𝗿𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗶𝗻 𝗮 𝗗𝗿𝘂𝗴 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗙𝗶𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗺 𝗥𝗲𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗜𝗻𝘃𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗴𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝘗𝘦𝘦𝘭 𝘙𝘦𝘨𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘢𝘭 𝘗𝘰𝘭𝘪𝘤𝘦 𝙊𝙘𝙩𝙤𝙗𝙚𝙧 𝟮𝟯, 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲 peelpolice.ca/news-feed/post…

This story is further complicated by recent Orders in Council banning certain firearms. Extreme Long Range (ELR) shooting is an increasingly popular - and expensive - sport in Canada, where wide-open ranges allow for long-distance target shooting. One can only imagine how long it will be before the term “sniping” becomes the next justification for additional bans, much as “assault” has been used to justify prohibitions on an ever-widening range of semi-automatic firearms. -The Moderator 𝐆𝐮𝐧𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐜𝐫𝐨𝐬𝐬𝐛𝐨𝐰𝐬 𝐬𝐞𝐢𝐳𝐞𝐝 𝐚𝐟𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐩𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐞 𝐞𝐱𝐞𝐜𝐮𝐭𝐞 𝐬𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐜𝐡 𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐢𝐧 𝐋𝐚𝐒𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐞 𝑀𝑒𝑙𝑎𝑛𝑖𝑒 𝐾𝑒𝑛𝑡𝑛𝑒𝑟, 𝐶𝑇𝑉 𝑁𝑒𝑤𝑠 𝗢𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝟮𝟮, 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲 ctvnews.ca/windsor/article/g…
