Geert Wilders and Bruce Montague: Sometimes the Cost Paid for our Rights and Freedoms is too high

Published May 5, 2012 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Freedom of Speech


As you no doubt recall, Katey Montague decided to take a step back from political activism because she felt the cost was simply too high for her to continue. After watching her father endure 7 years of trials that ended in a prison sentence and the impending seizure of the Montague family home by the Ontario government who can blame her for not wanting the same fate for … [Read more...]

Dialing 9-1-1 will not save your life… it’s sad but true

Published May 11, 2011 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Dial 9-1-1 and Die, Violent Criminals


The majority of Canadians believe the police are there to protect them.  It's a lie promoted incessantly by the Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police and other political organizations that want a monopoly on the use of force in Canada. What's the first thing you hear from police spokes-ninnies when someone has the audacity to defend themselves against a violent … [Read more...]

Bruce Montague released on Parole

Published January 12, 2011 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Good Stuff


As amazing as it sounds, it’s true.  After no word from the parole hearing last week, it’s a great relief (moreso for Bruce and Donna Montague, I’m sure!) to hear that he has actually been granted parole. He arrived back to his Dryden, Ontario home last night, and was greeted by his wife Donna, and son Michael. Michael’s schedule had allowed him to come home for his Dad’s … [Read more...]

Aaron Zelman of JPFO dies at 64

Published January 3, 2011 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: In Memoriam -- Remembering our Heros


I was shocked when I got the email from Jane Gaffin this afternoon telling me that Aaron Zelman of the Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership (JPFO) had passed away on December 21st, 2010.  It was like being gut-punched, not because I knew Aaron well... I didn't. We'd corresponded many times over the years about our common issue, and I'd had a lot of fun writing for … [Read more...]

Are Ontario Police above the Law?

Published October 28, 2010 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Abuse of Police Authority, Police Brutality, Police Misconduct


Are Ontario Police above the Law?  A report in today's Toronto Star suggests they are. The Ontario Special Investigations Unit (SIU), which is charged with investigating serious injuries and deaths caused by police has a near-perfect record of exonerating police officers. Cases where ordinary citizens would serve serious jail time often merit nothing more than a slap on … [Read more...]

Word of Montague Home Seizure by Ontario Gov’t Spreads

Published October 9, 2010 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Abuse of Police Authority, Property Rights


Bad news travels fast.  So the old saying goes, I think.  It's certainly true in the case of the Ontario government's intention of stealing the Montague family home while hiding behind the Civil Remedies Act's forfeiture clause for "proceeds of crime". I found a link to the case on some Canadian firearm chat boards, as well as on blogs across the country. My prayer is … [Read more...]

Bruce Montague’s Constitutional Challenge Rejected by Supreme Court of Canada

Published September 16, 2010 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Canada's Firearms Act


Today the Supreme Court of Canada announced they will not hear Bruce Montague's appeal. This does not mean the Montague's legal troubles are over, however.  Still outstanding is the Ontario Provincial Government's threat to take the Montague family home under Ontario's Proceeds of Crime Act.  They were "kind" enough, in their letter threatening the house seizure, to allow … [Read more...]

The Long Gun Registry Debate

Published September 16, 2010 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Canada's Firearms Act


by Phil Hewkin All the hyperbole and rhetoric, deception and corruption aside, from one guy who actually is not too lazy to read what the law states in the "Criminal code of Canada", all I can say, is, if YOU haven't taken the time to read these laws, "the Firearms Act" and, the section called, "Firearms and other weapons" as I have, PLEASE kindly SHUT the HELL UP!

NDP MPs Under Fire

Published September 12, 2010 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Canada's Firearms Act, Political Antics


While NDP party leader Jack Layton does the right thing (allowing a free vote on Candice Hoeppner's private member's Bill C-391), Liberal party leader Michael Ignatieff declares war on two NDP MPs. Niki Ashton (Churchill) and Malcolm Allen (Welland) are the two MPs that Ignatieff believes are the key to ending Bill C-391.  In a post on the Liberal party website, Ignatieff … [Read more...]

Larry Bagnell: Another Spineless Liberal MP

Published September 10, 2010 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Political Antics, Stupid Human Tricks


Yukon's Liberal MP Larry Bagnell is feeling stuck between a rock and a hard place.  His rural riding is filled with hunters, miners, prospectors and outdoors people. When asked if he would avoid the House instead of voting against his constituents, Bagnell said "I’m not sure, I haven’t explored that possibility to see if that’s an option".   He's got to ask Iggy's permission … [Read more...]

Jack Layton “under fire”

Published September 2, 2010 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Canada's Firearms Act, Political Antics


Jack Layton is under a lot of heat to get his members of parliament in line with party policy.  Unfortunately for Jack, those rural riding members want to actually get re-elected.  Most won their seats by less than 2,000 votes, some substantially less, so listening to their constituents when it comes to "gun control" means the difference between getting elected or being forced … [Read more...]

It’s about People Control, not Gun Control…

Published September 1, 2010 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Canada's Firearms Act, Political Antics


I can't say it any better than Garry Breitkreuz already did, so here's his editorial... The registry isn't about reducing crime. It's about public control. The media war over the hotly contested long-gun registry is in full swing, and it isn’t pretty. The Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police (CACP) is lobbying hard to keep our tax dollars flowing into the black hole … [Read more...]

communist broadcasting corp (CBC) at it again…

Published August 29, 2010 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Canada's Firearms Act, Gun Politics


The CBC (aka communist broadcasting corporation) is demanding we save Canada's failed gun registry.  Their reasons are simple enough... the RCMP says it's an important tool.  They quote a line from the unreleased report that says: The program, as a whole, is an important tool for law enforcement. It also serves to increase accountability of firearm owners for their … [Read more...]

Whether you like the bill or hate it, one thing is certain: it will be a very interesting vote this fall.  Katey Montague, the "YouTube starlet" as she's been called, recently released another video, this time directed squarely at Liberal leader Michael Ignatief.
