Do we not have enough nuts on Facebook about this kind of stuff already!?

I don't do facebook sir.

Also I am more interested in the opinions of those of us in this career. Maybe private side would be better.

So with the new minority Liberal government propped up by the socialist/communist NDP how long before mass confiscations of legally owned firearms begin?

How do we think the confiscation and the enforcement of such confiscations would work?

The only thing drilling holes will do is allow mud water and other contaminants in and not only negatively impact your braking power but also prematurely rust and wear the components. I am an avid 4 wheeler and built my own 1-ton jeep fyi

Zero2, As impressive as your resume is, I have to disagree with your stance. I am a strong advocate for clear distinction between police and other law enforcement agencies. I absolutely recognize why Alberta sees the need for sheriffs doing traffic stops or peace officers being out and about in pub...

I have no doubt Police appreciate the extra manpower but really other than the lower salary these CPO's are doing a Police job without all the tools that Police have to protect themselves. Why take that risk and why would the municipality accept that responsibility? If they are doing arrests and war...

Well the CPO's in Alberta to my knowledge do smaller towns and M.D.'s so it gives a town or M.D. control over how it's being protected in some capacity at least, without having to create its own police force. Also it's probably cheaper salary wise to have CPO's. CPO's carry radios and likely dispat...

Why not just hire Police Officers to do the job? What's the point of having unarmed response to Police calls?
Literally every duty you listed is done by full Police Officers in Ontario.

I have a question in regards to private property having Stop Signs and such. As I understand, HTA does not apply to private properties in Ontario. Does that mean these signs are basically not enforceable? Under HTA that is correct. HTA applies to a "highway". Look at your long form HTA fo...

Honestly if you know what you are looking for I would suggest Amazon. I keep my eye out on it and found some really good deals on both Merrell and Danner recently. I have Amazon Prime so I shop on there for the most part. Unfortunately my size in a few Danners were only available from "third p...

Merrill makes tactical boots now. Looks like they are only available in the US but I love their hikers.

Anyone know where a good selection of Danner boots is available in Canada?

Amazon doesn't offer the ones I want.

Thanks.

It's upsetting that our government puts tougher and tougher laws on law abiding citizens while doing nothing to enhance enforcement and incarceration of actual violent criminals. The Liberals opposed every sentencing law, terrorism law, illegal migration control law, and any attempt to incarcerate c...

Firearms registry does nothing to enhance Public Safety. Just as the old ART system Trudeau wants to punish law abiding firearms owners with again did absolutely nothing to enhance Public safety. Law abiding firearms owners are not the problem. Criminals with illegally obtained firearms are the prob...

As Police you guys know it is quite literally impossible to predict everything and make policies for every single tiny eventuality that may occur. As someone who is armed daily in my job believe me when I say I understand the safety concerns you express better than most. This is the inherent "g...

Funny thing about the PISGA....a security guard can carry a baton (either ASP style or straight stick) but not spray. Arguably the metal pipe (aka baton) could cause more damage if misused than the spray. I wonder if it is simply because the spray is prohib crim code? That said I have no issues with...
