On August 8, 2021, BC Supreme Court Justice Geoffrey B. Gomery slammed the door on violating an individual’s right to medical privacy. “There is no good reason to ask the question and I therefore declined to put it to panellists,” Justice Gomery ruled. A Crown prosecutor wanted Justice Gomery to exclude any potential jurors who were not vaccinated or who refused to allow … [Read more...]

Did the NFA send a SECOND mailout to stolen CPC membership list?
Sunday afternoon I received, via email, a scanned copy of a second, yes, second NFA fundraising letter sent to the stolen CPC mailing list. This new NFA fundraising letter starts off: "There's a big fight coming. You know it, and I know it. Prime Minster Justin Trudeau is going to take away more gun rights."

Bill C-30’s invasions of privacy and warrantless searches are outrageous, but all the other Acts are just fine?
Bruce Cockburn wrote a famous song that contained the line “The trouble with normal is it only gets worse.” The same can be said for governments. They always get worse, too. The current so-called Conservative government is a perfect example of this, and Vic Toews unwittingly tried using this to his advantage. He quickly discovered, much to his dismay, that Canadians … [Read more...]
Innocent until proven Guilty? No thanks, this is Canada!
...or "Give us your DNA or else!" That's basically the statement from Ontario Provincial Police Constable Peter Leon the other day. If you don't give police a DNA sample, then you will be presumed guilty of murder and treated as a murderer. Evidence? We don't need evidence? You refused a demand from the Almighty State! Clearly you missed your "re-education" sessions … [Read more...]
