At the first Trump cabinet meeting, he stated his intentions clearly. He restated blatant lies and disinformation, and he won’t really be questioned on it from the press or from any US politicians. The US is the enemy of Canada and should be understood as such. Take heed of his treatment of Ukraine - when he noted that they would lose the war without US help - and consider what he will propose when he uses the same argument on us. He makes it very clear in the video.
And very carefully consider which of our political leaders will stand up to Trump when he makes the argument that we need American military in our country to protect us.
I’m getting my PAL this month after never being interested in firearms before. And at least if the conservatives do win here, we’ll probably be allowed to purchase automatic weapons again.
Actually 10 of us at work are doing the firearms course together and we are autistic sysadmins lol
Pick up some Canadian made body armour if you’re in Quebec or Ontario. Practice practice practice.
And learn how to build and fly drones. There are some great DIY drone suppliers in Toronto area.
Also trauma Feild kits. They will be necessary. Many of them. Everyone planning guns or drones should have one. I am happy to offer my skills and whatever equipment I can round up…but I will need a lot.
And the training to use them.
Many of them are quite pricey. What do you recommend, preferably Canadian made, that I can stock up on?
Buy just the bag and find a medical supply house in your area. The supplies are pretty cost effective and can be bought separately. Look in the industrial parks in the cities around you or that you live in. There will be medical supply houses that stock first aid kits and supplies as well as hospital supplies and such. Get a list of goods and stock everything you can. They may also be designated as rescue supply. Avoid drug stores as the costs are exorbitant…
If you can’t manage all the goods buy PPE (gloves especially), trauma bandages, chest seals, tourniquets, tape (hockey tape works surprisingly well for a lot of things) and a pair good heavy medical shears. Stock as many as you can manage. Those will be the most used items.
Here is a list for a good basic Field kit you can follow. Put it in a pouch that can attach easily to a belt or a pack and be accessible always.
PPE (gloves, mask, eye protection)
Small pocket mask, NPA, OPA
Trauma scissors
1 or 2 tourniquets (SWAT-T, CAT)
Chest decompression kit
2-3 trauma dressings (Israeli type)
4-6 hemostatic dressings
2-3 open chest seal (Bolin, Hyfin, Asherman)
4 roller gauze, compression bandages
1 heavy duty 2" tape (e.g. NARP Gecko tape)
1 personal care kit (PCK) that includes personal medications, sunscreen, insect repellant, and/or contact lens supplies
I’m an extremely experienced drone pilot. It sounds funny but flying a drone for me came so easy because I set the controls to the same controls used in the attack helicopter in bad company 2. Which I have hundreds of hours of helicopter in that. So it was just plug and play for me lol
I’m in BC if you have any recommendations for body armour here
What do you recommend for people in MB?
You can purchase made in Canada body armor and trauma kits online.
Semi-automatic. Not trying to be a dick and I love that Canadians are seeing the threat and arming up. Just want to help with the terminology. Enjoy shooting!
