Women as voters tend to value things like health and safety as well as stability more than men. These values may better contextualize why many women are becoming gun buyers in the midst of the COVID19 pandemic. Women are not the majority of gun enthusiasts, yet are buying-up rifles, pistols, and shotguns, showing that personal protection is likely the primary motivator.
Scheer asserted that “Conservatives called for stronger action to protect our borders in the early days of this crisis” and then hit the Liberals for saying restricting travel was “ineffective and unneeded” and reversing themselves later on.
Canada’s death by firearms rate is 2.0 per 100,000. However, if you remove suicides from that number, it falls to just 0.79 per 100,000. In comparison to the American rate of 12.21 per 100,000, nevermind the socialist disaster state of Venezuela’s absurd rate of 49.22 per 100,000, Canada is a very safe country.
The Prime Minister’s announcement that the government would be going forward with their previously planned carbon tax increase came as somewhat of a surprise as Trudeau had remained tight-lipped about its status up until last Wednesday.

“I feel that anti Western sentiment was basically trafficked in Quebec by Trudeau for political gain. And, you know, of course, for me, I would be trying to build up every province across the country as opposed to, you know, setting one region against another. I think he did that just because he felt he probably wouldn’t do well in the West anyway, so he might as well build on this anti-Western sentiment for his own games in Quebec.”
While many Canadians support further gun control, no doubt with good intentions of minimizing harm and prioritizing safety, the measures they support, such as handgun bans or AR-15 bans, fail to help meet those goals and merely end up punishing law abiding Canadian gun owners.
An investigation into two separate incidents of Karahalios by the Leadership Election Organizing Committee (LEOC) was conducted, one involving a letter to supporters and the other a perceived racist interaction over Facebook. The Toronto-based Urban Alliance on Race Relations filed a complaint with the CPC regarding the post, where Karahalios responded to his letter, sent two weeks prior.
