This week Ian, Dave, and Andrew are on the panel. The CBC is losing a lot of money after losing Hockey Night in Canada. Canada’s stock market is second (worst) only to Venezuela. 4 Alberta MPs sign the Buffalo Declaration. Taxation is still theft, BS has found new creative ways to steal money and Canadian’s are paying $40k in tax on average. We also update the rail blockade situation as Ontario Provincial Police start to enforce injunctions. We also discuss listener feedback on Accelerationism.
Month: February 2020
CPP215 – Champagne dreams, communist wishes
This week Ian, Gavin, and Andrew hop on the old acceleration train and talk about the failings of colonialism. The Liberals paid off friendly media companies on climate change, while Trudeau missed a filling deadline with the ethics commissioner, and is missing in action. NAV Center is being used for Corna virus quarantine. The panel talks about rail blockades their impact, and the Government’s lack of action. Meanwhile, Trudeau has been giving away millions of dollars to other countries in a bid to secure a temporary seat at the UN Security Council. The Panel also recaps recent GTA mayor, police, and community meetings where no one is in favour of gun bans.

Dear Minister Blair;
Today I write to you in regard to possible change to the classification of firearms and statements that have been made by Government officials with regard to a federal gun buy back.
The Government is not in the business of selling firearms, so I wonder how you plan to “buy back” something you never sold in the first place? I also wonder what your plan is to address the illegally owned handguns so frequently used by gangsters in the commission of other crimes. As you no doubt heard your successor at Toronto Police Service, Chief Mark Saunders has recently made statements that indicate criminals in Toronto are most frequently in possession of illegal hand guns that have been smuggled into Canada. How do you plan to buy those back?
Perhaps your efforts would be better spent on addressing the rising rates of violent crime in Canada, our high rates of recidivism, or our porous boarders through which so many illegal items are smuggled. Perhaps instead of targeting licensed firearms owners you might approach the difficult task of creating Real Change that the Liberal Party was so found of during the 2015 election? That fondness for change seems to have evaporated in favour of making easy targets of licensed firearms owners, as if 2.2 million Canadians with licensed firearms were a greater threat to public safety than any criminal enterprise in this country.
Perhaps my voice is not worth your time, or perhaps you might do the difficult work you were elected to do. Perhaps a sound bit about doing something, anything, is easier and more satisfying for our Government than actually keeping Canadians safe.
Sincerely,
Your Name

Dear Minister Blair;
I fear my previous letters on the subject of a possible gun ban, or buy back program by the Liberal government may have been too nuanced and verbose. To be clear; Canadians do not support the confiscation of our property via Orders In Council. Canadians do no support targeting law-abiding citizens while ignoring the criminal elements that bring violence to our cities. Canadians do no support a dictatorship that governs by decree rather than through our parliamentary processes. 2.2 millions legal Canadians own firearms and have done nothing to deserve to have their legally owned firearms forcibly removed based on catchy sound bites or scary photos. Canadians do not support the government’s apathy in enforcing policies that target actual criminals, and would bring about real change and safer communities.
Taking every legal gun from ever licensed owner will stop exactly zero criminals from using their illegal handguns, smuggled in to Canada, in the commission of their other crimes.
Canadians deserve better, and we expect you to set a better example.
Sincerely,
Your Name
