Fudds’ Turn in the Barrel

In fact, things are progressing so rapidly with our neighbor to the north that anti-gun politicians and their activist allies are now so emboldened they’re going after commonly-owned hunting rifles and shotguns despite repeatedly claiming that hunters had nothing to fear from their machinations.

But…but…but…

Who knew “sporting purposes” worked in favor of tyranny?

Oh Canada

By the end of September, officials representing the Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba governments had notified Marco Mendicino, the federal minister responsible for implementing Prime Minister Trudeau’s gun ban and confiscation law, that they would not authorize the use of provincially-funded resources to implement the program within their jurisdictions. Since then, officials in Yukon and New Brunswick have likewise expressed the view that the federal gun grab should not be piggybacked on provincial resources. [More]

Wake me when they pledge to arrest any federal official attempting to enforce it.

Working Class Hero*

Canadian Conservatives elect working-class champion Pierre Poilievre to topple Trudeau [More]

And here’s the significant part, because we all know “conservative” is a relative term that means different things at different times and in different places:

It ain’t “shall not be infringed,” but it’s a hell of a “good first step.”

And Thank You for Your Service, Eh?

A Canadian Forces veteran seeking treatment for post-traumatic stress disorder and a traumatic brain injury was shocked when he was unexpectedly and casually offered medical assistance in dying by a Veterans Affairs Canada (VAC) employee… [More]

It seems the more socialist a  country gets, the more receptive to choosing death as the answer its government becomes.

What Price Freedom?

Too Much to Bear


If the worst had happened, the choices the adults made would have led to it, starting with Utahns going to frickin’Canada and then taking those delicious meals into the woods with no way to protect them.

I took my little guys into the wilderness several times a year when they were growing up, places with bears, cougars, coyotes, rattlesnakes, and you name it, and would never have been able to forgive myself if I hadn’t been able to handle whatever might arise — as something did on one occasion.

I told my wife as a non-negotiable condition before we were married that there was only one order that I would ever give her, and that is if I told her to run, she would obey without argument. The reason is not just one of self-sacrifice, but also of survival. There are situations where total focus is required, and any presence that distracts from that reduces the chances to escape and/or prevail.

They got lucky.

The man in this video should have handed off the papoose, sent her and the kids on, and made sure that if he couldn’t dissuade it, the only person of interest would be him. He was utterly unprepared and incapable of carrying out the most sacred basic duty of a father.

I can imagine no worse hell to have to survive than William Petit’s.

Leading By Example

Trudeau, 50, tested positive despite being double vaccinated and boosted. He was criticized in January for announcing that he tested positive and was isolating when truckers who were part of the “Freedom Convoy” first arrived at Parliament Hill in Ottawa to protest vaccine mandates and other COVID-19-related restrictions.

Yeah, listen to these guys.
