And this was literally one of the nicest old guys I've ever met. Retired paramedic, sweet little wife from Minnesota with the mid-western pseudo Canadian mannerisms. But it simply did not register with them, that you couldn't walk into a random store in Canada, and walk out with a 9mm pistol in 10 minutes, and throw it in a holster on your belt.It's ingrained in them, and you can't really blame them if that's what you've known your whole life.

Depends....have they been to the Stampede yet?
You're right though, its crazy how ingrained it is in their culture.
"But how do you protect and defend yourself tho??"
Um. We speak calmly and rationally as we await for the Police to arrive.
The only people who should be wandering about in public with guns are the people we pay specifically to wander about, in public....with guns.
Just them though. Its not a competition.
