They’re also called pig stickers.

Just great, disarm the citizenry and leave them to the mercy of the wild. Not even a fish and game warden to protect them. Ain’t government grand!

Cold Steel sells a war club and sjamboks. I intend to get one of each. I intend to cause serious hurt to anyone who might threaten or attack my family. Got that, Maxine?

The cat was only after his wife?

1) change perfume

2) work on her personal hygiene

I can’t see much difference from any other European Socialist country. Even on the sunniest day of summer it just strikes me as dull and gray. The people just seem to have given up being free.


Are you sure? Because there are a lot of tv programs made in Canada, and every person on them is happy, well educated, highly paid, skillful, honest, and above board, and the neighborhoods are all ideal places to live./sarc

Any adult without a criminal record can buy a rifle in Canada. You have to take a firearm safety course that takes a couple of hours. They give you a Fire Arm Certificate and you go buy your guns.
Hand guns are more difficult to obtain but if you want to jump thru the hoops it can be done.
Rifles don’t need to be registered but hand guns do.
I live in rural Alberta. I can’t think of anyone who doesn’t have a gun.

This was in 2013, almost five years ago.

How often are the classes offered?

Do you get the certificate at the class?

Classes are offered every week near where I live.

On Vancouver Island you might have to travel a couple hours to find a class unless you can do it thru the local RCMP detachment.
Mine took about 10 days in 2002
we renew every 5 years on line, If you let it expire you have to take the class again
If you don’t have a current FAC you can’t buy bullets.
The RCMP added a 28 day waiting period for a more thorough criminal check in 2015 and have changed the name to PAL (Possession and Acquisition License)
Maybe it takes longer in BC but it’s federal law so it shouldn’t.

LOL

It is odd that they are claiming that the woman was the sole target of the lion. Good catch!

I laugh but your suggestions might be serious considerations if it’s true.

Nope. Apparently, it’s just across the Minnesota/Canada border. ;)
