Self Defence in Canada (split from Gun Control 2.0)

Took my wife for a walk in the woods near a popular trail, we went off trail and it looked like there were no people around, so I had her practice with a small can of dog spray. All went well and as we moved back to the trail, a bunch of ladies were coughing and hacking as they had been downwind but out of sight. Oops, we innocently walked quickly the other way.

My preference when I worked in the bush alone was bearspray and a shotgun loaded with magnum 3" Brenneke slugs. If there was two of us, I would get the other person to carry the spray. Generally have the person deploy the spray and if that did not work, then the shotgun. You need to wait till the bear is very close with the spray and that is very unnerving. Also you need to aim for the face.

Most bear defense guys I know, have now switched to lever action 45/70's. Far better penetration than even the best shotgun slug.
 
He isn’t wrong on one thing, we have failed hence the increase in crime, lack of protection, drug usage in public, random stabbings, home invasion increases, etc.

Our country is not as safe as it was a decade ago. Our policies encourage criminals and make things worse. Joe public is on their own whether they like it or not and the only thing the State wants to actively do is prevent them from protecting themselves and their families.

It’s never we have a solution to the repeat offenders constantly getting released, or the lack of jail cells, etc. it is only if you try to defend yourself we will go through every possible avenue to punish you for having the audacity to try.
