• Pat Flood (@rebarcock) passed away 9/21/25. Pat played a huge role in encouraging the devolopmemt of this site and donated the very first dollar to get it started. Check the thread at the top of the board for the obituary and please feel free to pay your respects there. I am going to get all the content from that thread over to his family so they can see how many people really cared for Pat outside of what they ever knew. Pat loved to tell stories and always wanted everyone else to tell stories. I think a great way we can honor Pat is to tell a story in his thread (also pinned at the top of the board).

Over 90% of Canadian truck drivers are vaccinated!

François Laporte, the president of Teamsters Canada, which represents over 55,000 drivers, including 15,000 long-haul truckers, said the protests do not represent the industry in which 90% of drivers are vaccinated.


It’s time to put antigovernment terrorist in their place! Revoke their licenses and seize the property they are using to obstruct the public! Jail them if they refuse to disperse!
 
Does Canada have a 2a?
No
The only positive thing about our gun laws from a U.S. point of view is at least we are not Australia yet.
While lots of people own long guns, they have to be locked up and stored separately from ammunition (also locked up), which makes them pretty useless for self protection. Plus you need a gun license. Handguns are allowed, but the rules are even stricter. My FIL used to own a couple.
I used to shoot clay pigeons at the cottage as a kid, but it’s not worth the bother anymore.
