Bill Blair – Master of Misinformation and Misdirection
Bill Blair may only be a second-term Liberal MP but make no mistake – Bill Blair is a career politician. The Minister of Misinformation's defence of his ban on so-called “military-style assault weapons” is just the latest ideological step in Blair’s long political career. He became Chief of the Toronto Police Service on April 26, 2005. During his tenure as Toronto’s top … [Read more...]
Marquis Watkins: Gun Smuggler Nets 3 Years in Prison
On October 16, 2018, Marquis Watkins, a “former football phenom”, attempted to smuggle 20 handguns into Canada via the beautiful Rainbow Bridge at Niagara Falls, Ontario.

Negligent Discharge: RCMP Refuses to File Charges
On Wednesday, May 13, 2020, some moron apparently fired a dozen or more shots into the air. Those bullets landed on six homes in the Forest Heights area of Edmonton, Alberta. Negligent discharge of a firearm doesn’t even begin to describe this stupidity. “My daughter woke up and she is playing in her room and she is sitting on the floor, and looked up and there is a hole … [Read more...]

Alan Ruel: Man Paralysed by Stroke in Jail Cell While RCMP Ignored Him
If the RCMP is outstanding at anything, it’s their ability to deny all wrongdoing in the face of overwhelming evidence to the contrary. The RCMP Hall of Shame is filled with examples of bad cops being protected by RCMP supervisors, usually until video evidence arrives and forces them to abandon their coverups. Robert Dziekanski and Buddy Tavares are two high-profile examples … [Read more...]
Gun Bans in Canada’s Two-Tiered Justice System

Liberal Gun Bans, Opinion Polls and The Truth
On May 1st, 2020, the Liberal Government banned over 1,500 makes and models of guns they labelled “military-style assault rifles.” The same day, Angus Reid Institute trotted out a poll to support the ban, saying “an overwhelming majority” of poll respondents – 78% – “support or strongly support” the ban on assault-style weapons.[i] Interestingly, the Angus Reid poll also … [Read more...]
