Indeed! It's hard to determine from that single post if a non-CAF member was involved or just non-service ammunition. Having myself been fired upon, in Canada, by an inebriated hunter during a patrolling exercise on civilian land many years ago, I see that as a possible explanation. This is...

Not surprised about the Glock.

Saw this elsewhere. CPC MP James Bezan calling out PMMC for not informing Canadians that CAF members in Kuwait came under attack on March 1st.

Given the multifaceted and very public push back against the "compensated confiscation" plan, I tend to beleive the same, so I'm cautiously optimistic. But I'm also used to being disappointed by Liberals.

FTFY. Logan was probably in a bit of a panic, as many would be when they see/think they see a crime in progress. He did what he thought was right, given his life experience and training (if any). There's a million variables in situations like this. Bottom line is that he did something. As for...

When I'm working Primary I make a point of talking with every kid in every car. I've referred a small number for a secondary examination because something seemed "off" (e.g. adult answering primary questions on behalf of the kid who is old enough to answer on their own, or a sole adult...
