    Police Folk Allegedly Behaving Badly

    My club is primarly handgun users. I know a lot of LEOs who hunt who aren't club members. Long gun laws are pretty simple once you take the time to understand the nuances of storage and transportation. Restricted are not. I got stopped about 6 or so years ago during my birth month right...

    Police Folk Allegedly Behaving Badly

    You might be surprised. I'd say that roughly 10% of my gun club membership is active or retired LEOs.

    Police Folk Allegedly Behaving Badly

    Well, it's not OPS this time, but still. 12 years worth of alleged offences before charges were laid. The reasons why will be interesting.

    Police Folk Allegedly Behaving Badly

    That's admirable. Perhaps a VOT is in order. To my knowledge it hasn't happened yet. But suspensions have been handed out for lesser transgressions. And, for the umpteenth time on these forums, we are Border Services Officers not CBSA agents, despite what the MSM says. :) BSO applicants...

    Police Folk Allegedly Behaving Badly

    I'm sure IA folks are recruited internally. If the incident is reported, most likely. I have seen - first hand - the exact opposite in my line of work. Professional courtesy only gets you so far. Those are the ones that make the news, as they offend the public sensibilities. I'm sure there...

    Why not just sign one out from the weapons lockup? Bad plan, poorly executed. @brihard with a conditional prohibition order that doesn't affect his employment, to boot.

    Police Folk Allegedly Behaving Badly

    Up to the point where it ends up in court. Then, it's just another attempted murder case. @dapaterson no Timbits or double-doubles are allowed in courtrooms.

    Un-freakin-believable! But, that's not necessarily a Canadian police story but more of a Canadian law story.

    The Great Gun Control Debate- 2.0

    Ukraine didn't want them. And, by the time the Liberals actually figure out how to collect our guns, that war will probably be over.

    The Great Gun Control Debate- 2.0

    The business buyback is on hold, the individual buyback pilot was a flop, collecting just over 10% of the projected guns. We're 2 weeks away from December 6. The Liberals have been given their annual "shit or get off the pot" warning by Poli to implement the remaining parts of C-71 and C-21...

    The Great Gun Control Debate- 2.0

    Public Safety has delayed the re-start of the business "compensated confiscation(TM)" until at early 2026 due to "internal changes and complications within the program".

    Liberal Minority Government 2025 - ???

    Ukraine is in the middle of a special military operation. That bumps them up in the queue.

    Liberal Minority Government 2025 - ???

    The article is silent in this regard. Even so, there are some limited circumstances where time outside of Canada can still count towards fulfilling your residency requirement. I've heard several stories of foreign national professionals coming to Canada and being unable to gain Canadian...

    "Calls for lifetime ban after vicious attack on young (OHL) hockey player."

    A friend of mine, now in his 50's, was charge criminally and found guilty for a junior hockey fight years ago where he injured the other player. If I recall correctly it was a broken jaw.

    Trump administration 2024-2028

    Lots of people threatened to leave after Obama and Trump 1.0, including a lot of celebrities. Few really did. And some who did returned after a few years.

    Self Defence in Canada (split from Gun Control 2.0)

    Years ago when I worked for a few months as a "doorman", we were briefed during our training on some case law under the old self-defence provisions which involved excessive force. The main thrust back then was to ensure none of us carried any weapons while working.

    Self Defence in Canada (split from Gun Control 2.0)

    I'm glad to see his Honour drawing a parallel to bar bouncers. Had this gone the other way, it could've opened up a huge can of worms for the hospitality industry.

    FTFY. :) This is going to get ugly really fast. Tom Clancy has nothing on this dude.

    Trump administration 2024-2028

    It's not a common occurrence, but it does happen. It happened at my workplace about 9 years ago.
