When asked about new firearms legislation at an event in Saskatoon, Prime Minister Stephen Harper said there are too many restrictions on gun ownership, which he added is important for the livelihoods of rural people, recreation and personal safety according to CTV.

“My wife’s from a rural area and obviously gun ownership wasn’t just for the farm, but was for a certain level of security when you’re a ways away from immediate police assistance,” he said during a question-and-answer session with the Saskatchewan Association of Rural Municipalities.

It is alarming how much more I like the PM of Canada over the President of my own country.

There’s a large part of Canada which doesn’t...care much for gun laws.

Think “consent of the governed”.

Everyone has an unalienable right to life and therefor to self defense.

Everyone is a “ways away” from immediate police protection.

Everyone has a right to possess and carry a weapon for the protection of their life.

On the Mohawk Reservation just south of Montreal there is a convenience store or depauner for the French speakers whose sign outside the store says, I kid you not,” Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms.” The place sells booze, smokes and guns, I mean, what else is there.

That’s because we don’t have a real president. We have a Celebrity-in-Chief who is obsessed with vacationing.
