The Justice Centre announces that the Supreme Court of Nova Scotia has struck down the province’s sweeping 2025 ban on entering the woods, ruling that the government acted unreasonably and failed to consider the Charter rights and values affected by the ban. The decision follows a constitutional challenge brought by lawyers funded by the Justice Centre on behalf of Canadian Armed Forces veteran Jeffrey Evely, who was fined $28,872.50 for walking in the woods under the province’s blanket prohibition. Constitutional lawyer Marty Moore said the ruling confirms that governments must respect fundamental freedoms, even during emergencies. “Justice Campbell appropriately warns in his decision that if the rights of individuals are not safeguarded in emergency circumstances, ‘…they can be eroded in a way that eventually affects everyone.  Experience tells us that the erosion can happen in unexpected places at an unexpected pace.’” This case was made possible by the generous support of donors. Please consider making a tax-deductible donation to help the Justice Centre continue funding lawyers to defend Canadians’ Charter freedoms. Read the full story here: jccf.ca/supreme-court-…

@D191145 @TWilsonOttawa That blade is called the “Huckleberry”, and you can get your own or another custom blade from knivesmadebynick.com

@TWilsonOttawa Not too shabby! What’s the blade?

My honey has been dabbling in leather craft. Check out this cool sheath he made!! Very talented!! 🔪🇨🇦❤️

@mario4thenorth There is no such thing as third party harassment. Looks like the perfect opportunity for a law suit.

🚨 WOW University of Guelph just banned a young woman FOR LIFE from campus. Her crime? Standing NEAR a conversation she wasn’t even part of. Her family member was talking to a group of people. She was in the vicinity. That’s it. The Campus Safety Office decided the TOPIC of that conversation was sufficient grounds for a lifetime ban. Not her words. Not her actions. A conversation she was LISTENING to. Soon, having the wrong opinions NEAR YOU is gonna be a crime. OH WAIT, TOO LATE - SHE GOT BANNED!

Elon Musk speaks hard truths on what Nelson Mandela actually stood for and how South Africa has completely lost that Starlink is still blocked in Elon's home country because he is not black "The vision that Nelson Mandela, a remarkable leader, proposed was for all races to coexist equally in South Africa. Currently, there are around 140 laws that preferentially benefit Black South Africans over others" Mandela fought for absolute equality, but the current system has betrayed that vision They cannot claim to honor Mandela’s legacy of racial harmony while enforcing 140+ race-based ownership quotas. That is not progress - it is just discrimination wearing a new mask By actively blocking Starlink over these "discriminatory laws," bureaucrats are literally keeping their own rural schools and communities disconnected from the future

@IsakRydlund @Feral999 You are right, and I was able to move mine once I called about a change of address. My point is that firearm owners should already know they can’t transport a restricted/prohibited firearm to somewhere other than the range without an ATT.

@CJSaunders1973 @Feral999 Actually if the firearm was previously restricted and now covered under the bans you can't get an ATT. There is simply no way for the CFO to issue them in the system.

The RCMP is now warning firearm owners that bringing their banned firearms already declared for compensation under the “buyback” program into a station to surrender them could itself be considered a criminal offence. What a ridiculous clown show this ASFCP has turned into. @CanadasNFA rcmp.ca/en/bc/chilliwa…

This makes me sick. Ultra rich Liberal boomer who lives abroad has big opinions on your kids’ futures and its dystopian

@Feral999 @CanadasNFA Still not the largest stakeholder group…

Apparently, PolySeSouvient fears a strong gun lobby. That’s exactly why firearm owners should join the National Firearms Association (NFA), Canada’s largest stakeholder group for firearm advocacy. The larger our membership, the stronger our voice in Ottawa. @CanadasNFA

@Feral999 Definitely NOT the largest stakeholder group….

I’m in Ottawa this week lobbying on behalf of the National Firearms Association, Canada’s largest stakeholder group for firearm rights. I’m now convinced the Minister of Public Safety has no intention of meeting with me. He claims he hears nothing but “vitriol” from the gun lobby—but that’s simply not true. We’ve consistently asked for respectful, constructive dialogue. @CanadasNFA @gary_srp

🚨 BREAKING: Finance Minister François-Philippe Champagne just quietly recused himself from the $90 BILLION Alto high-speed rail project. Why? His wife, Anne-Marie Gaudet, is a Vice President at Alto. The Crown corporation building the train. The Ethics Commissioner has NO public record of this conflict. The same Champagne who: -Just flew to Beijing with the Bank of Canada governor -Owns 2 rental properties in London, England -Is the beneficiary of multiple trust funds -Whose brother got a “negotiated acquittal” in a Hells Angels meth lab bust right before he entered politics Pierre Poilievre called Alto a $90 billion boondoggle. $700 million spent. Zero track laid. Now you know why. The Finance Minister’s wife works for the company about to receive the biggest infrastructure cheque in Canadian history.

Freedom in Canada doesn’t collapse with tanks. It fades more quietly. A new rule here. A “temporary” program there. Another national strategy. After a while, you wake up and realize the space to decide for yourself has been quietly fenced in. That’s the shift. The old tyrannies demanded obedience. The modern version asks for compliance in the name of compassion. Sounds nicer. Same direction. This is where the Liberal Party of Canada approach fits perfectly. Every problem gets a centralized solution. Housing shortages? Federal coordination. Energy costs? Federal planning. Industrial decline? Government picking winners. Speech tensions? Social pressure to fall in line. Each piece sounds reasonable. Stack them together and choice shrinks. Enter Mark Carney, the polished manager of this worldview. Banker calm. Global language. Net-zero frameworks. Industrial policy talk. It’s presented as sophisticated governance. What it really does is move decisions upward. Citizens become clients. Businesses become compliance departments. Regions become case studies. The irony is predictable. The loudest supporters are often insulated from the consequences. Consultants, academics, policy professionals. People who don’t lose jobs when projects are cancelled. People who don’t close shops when compliance costs rise. They design the system. Others live inside it. No single policy looks authoritarian. That’s why it works. A subsidy here. A mandate there. A regulation layered on top. Individually compassionate. Collectively constraining. Freedom doesn’t get crushed. It gets managed. The media helps. A crisis appears. A simple solution gets amplified. Critics get framed as heartless. Another lever gets pulled. Few step back and ask what the total adds up to. History already ran this experiment. Fascism promised order. Communism promised equality. Both concentrated power and crushed dissent. Today’s version promises sustainability, fairness, and coordination. Different tone. Same structural risk. Power flows upward. Accountability thins out. Canada’s danger isn’t an obvious dictator. It’s the slow accumulation of well-meaning control under leaders who believe they know best. That’s the direction the Liberals and Carney point toward. Not dramatic. Not loud. Just steady tightening. This isn’t leadership. It’s management of your life dressed up as progress. Stop judging each promise in isolation. Ask what happens when you add twenty of them together.

@mario4thenorth This government has shown zero respect for its citizen’s rights and freedoms. We have been living in communism for the last ten years, and it’s only getting worse.

🚨 BREAKING Liberals aren’t hiding it anymore. Warrants don’t mean 💩. If they think you’re a threat, THEY’RE TAPPING YOUR PHONE, your internet, everything. They’re building up their kompromat Who needs Opposition research when you got CSIS doing it for you.

@MarkJCarney Situation: no change. Thank-you Mr. Carnage for getting zero achieved for Canada 🙄

I spoke with President Trump this afternoon on a range of issues, including the economy, developments in the Middle East, and trade relations between our two countries — and we agreed to stay in close contact.

‼️ BREAKING What I’ve been telling you: Polls are a marketing strategy.

WOW. Americans are asking Canadians for free housing because they said the cost of living crisis here is worse than America.

Wait. What?? Who is threatening the family of the victims. This is out of control

Here’s the Liberal blueprint for all to see: They want the ability, under the guise of what THEY FEEL, is “innovative” or “public interest”, to allow ANY PERSON or COMPANY, to violate any laws. It’s the power of a King. Rules for thee. Not for me. King Carney🤴

BREAKING: Carney took his wife and daughter. The cost of in-flight food & hotel was $230,000+. For a short trip to the Vatican, from May 16-19th. That doesn’t include the flight, fuel, the pilots, security, salaries and the incredible amount of overhead. Meanwhile, food bank use is at an all-time high. This is out of touch. Abusive. And insane.

Mark Carney’s polling didn’t slip. It collapsed. 68% Poilievre 32% Carney That’s not momentum. That’s a verdict. Turns out Canadians don’t like being SOLD OUT to CHINA and DITCH the U.S. in Davos SETTING our BIGGEST trading partner on fire.

@LichTamara Just remember….Justin Trudeau settled out of court with Omar Khadr for $10.5M for human rights violations…

Funny, I was just thinking the same thing this morning.
