We all should look at our charter rights as defining law to ensure the safety of person. When government and LE fail to ensure the protection of person in an attempt to disarm lawful firearm ownership and to enrich the lives of criminals through leniency and corruption it undermines the moral fabric of society, conceal carry is one such option for the protection of person. The current firearms programme undermines the protection of person, I will say this again, government and LE are intentionally undermining the protection of the person.

just my opinion.

Your Charter Rights exist only 'at the pleasure' of the Palace and The City of London Bank.

They are not "rights" at all but privileges granted to some persons and even then only temporarily.

The Military and fur-trade goods monopoly colony called Prince Rupert's Land (now devolved to 'Canada') has enshrined not your 'rights' but the right of the crown and its representatives, like Trudeau and Carney, to remove them at will and then do what they want with, and to, you.

If you want 'inalienable' rights you will have to move to the USA or work to have the USA take over the colony.

Or we fight for our own country and not inherit the US's problems through becoming part of the US. True freedoms come at a cost, are we willing to accept the US's problems all to inherit their constitution, because there will be tradeoffs. Mass migrations of people and the problems that come with the new ownership. Joining the US would also come with many good things but I tend to look at the negative first then weigh the + along with the - . There is no solution if we let governments and foreigners rule our destiny other than a downward spiral into a deeper shit hole of corruption, Canada needs a massive purge.

They have made peaceful change impossible by calling it - "extra Parliamentary opposition" a crime - and by almost perfecting the Panopticon. Everything and everyone one is under overlapping surveillance. Just in case, they will always preemptively pick off leaders of anything they do not like, trust or understand, such as the Freedom Convoy and life itself.

That is why going to the USA may be our best, if not our only, chance to improve our lot.

As fitful and ugly as it looks, the US, with Trump, may be further along the road to systemic change. Canadahar is nowhere.

Like Slim Pickens in "Dr Strangelove", Dr Meat (Carney) is ready to ride Canada down till it hits the ground.

Can a man tell another man what to do? Can a woman tell another woman what to do? Where did those rights come from - a piece of paper known as the Constitution? No, they are GOD given; anyone who rises up against you, you will innatly fight back against; unless sick , intoxicated or medicated, your inner being couldn't give up those inherant rights even if you wanted to. God gave you the right to life; had he not, you would have never been born.

Again, can a man tell another man what to do? No, not at all. Why is it a man puts on a Black Robe and suddenly a man thinks otherwise?

As you suggest, let's look at the Charter. Nowhere in the Charter will you see the words "man" or "woman". Why? Because men and women have rights - Corporations and their staff members do not. "A person", defined by law, is a "Corporation". When you say "protection of a person", unknowingly , you are saying "protection of a corporation". A corporation has duties and obligations; a corporation does not have rights.

In your entire lifetime, how many times would you say that you have heard the phrase "the government"? You also know that if you say something often enough, "the people" will believe it. In contrast, had heard the phrase "the corporation" as many times, what would you be saying? "The Corporation of Canada." You would know that Canada is not a Government - it is a Crown Corporation. Can a corporation create laws? No, they cannot. Just like the "McDonalds Corporation", a corporation can create Acts, Bills, Codes, Statutes, Mandates, Rules and Regulations, but they cannot create law.

Because a Corporation does not have any authority over a "man"or a "woman" - outside of that corporation, Section 32 states that the Charter applies to the Parliament of the Crown Corporation, the Yukon and the Northwest Territories of the Crown Corporation, and the Provinces of the Crown Corporation. The Crown Corporation's Constituion is not "the peoples" constitution; their corporate maple-leaf Flag, Provincial, and Territorial flags, are not "the peoples" Flag.

Corp-oration. Corpse-"oration": the dead talking. A "person" is a corporation. Do you get the connection? Like the dead, the corporations send you your name written in all-caps. Names written in lowercase, are the names of the living man or woman.

What God gives us, cannot be taken away. God is our Constitution God Created man and woman; a man and woman have rights - a corporation does not. Can a man tell another man what to do? Can a woman tell another woman what to do? Only if you allow it. What you allow - will persist.

20 million people said "I am only one man" or "I am only one woman"; "what the hell can I do"?

Section 1 of the charter is an attempt to allow the government to suspend inherent and immutable common law rights. The rest of the charter is a word salad of inherent and immutable common law rights.

The charter does not enshrine or support rights. Read Section 1 carefully. It allows limits on rights.

This is in part why we need change, strengthening our rights, joining the US is the fastest solution that comes with some serious problems, we need government out of our lives, but it doesn't come without a fight.

Indeed ... Just my recollection of multiple choice when I was growing up as they generally had four options although sometimes more but be assured you are correct and I'm sure the occasion will arise again when I will use the above and include a fifth.. Your suggestion of "Criminals" is indeed a good one.

This is the first time I listened to the Crime Report, Ron Chhinzer. Thanks for laying it out so clearly and professionally. It isn't easy to hear or read these tragedies and Sean Fraser needs to wake up, together with the Liberal party and all you 'elbows up' group. Stop being politicians and start being human beings who support law abiding citizens. Maybe when something horrible happens to someone they actually care about, the wheels will start spinning a lot faster. Of course, I don't wish that on anyone.

I feel as though I'm preaching to the choir when commenting on Juno as all the readership are obviously not Liberal. These messages needs to get beyond Juno's demographic of readers and likely more effective is to flood our MP's with emails so that the message from Canadians is one of unmistakeable clarity ... DO SOMETHING ABOUT THE CRIME!

In reference to the statement wild wild West I’m not sure whether Fraser understands Toronto is in Ontario, which is in eastern Canada. No problems out here in the west.

The "wild west" was a period of time when criminals ran amok. Today, the criminals are running amok and Sean Fraser, doing nothing about it, says he doesn't want a "wild west." Sean Fraser, along with his cohorts, are among the most stupidest people who have ever walked upon the surface of the earth.

Sean Frazier should be fired from his position. He should have been fired from his last 3 positions. How does someone so incompetent continue to be re-elected?

Castle Law should be enacted immediately, those home invasions would be reduced immediately as well. But we should go a bit further, to bring self defence to the sidewalks and roads, as well. Carjackers may think twice before throwing guns into the face of drivers, if a gun would be pointed right back at them.

Retaliation won't work. We see that with the tariffs. Would be better off keeping the damn criminals in jail in the first place. And make the sentences hard enough as a deterrent so they don't reoffend or do the crime in the first place. Like deportation. These are people who were never given consequences growing up. Get rid of Corney's weak judges too. I'd rather see money go towards prisons (not privilege hotels) and punishment than what it's being wasted on now.

No it's far from being the wild west. More like the criminal wild lieberal east. What we do need is the wild west to straighten matters out. If Smith and Moe keep building momentum, they could clean up the west by kicking the east out.

This is another example of the Liberals failing on every front. How can Quebec and Ontario keep being so wrong by re-electing them?

Call it what it is! Fraser like his Liberal party minority government are buying votes while illegal immigrants break laws with impunity. Alberta referendum will leave Doug Ford and Quebec to pay for the 'fiefdom' they deserve. Free Press will never return until the CBC, CTV and Global are defunded. Ford and Carney own this mess!!

Hyperbole? I have two family members, recently retired, who were career, full-time cops in a large Canadian city. They have both been saying these same things, decrying the lawlessness of the Liberal government, long before they retired.

Go and stand in the blood at one of the crimes officer Chhinzer describes, go and sit with the parents of that 4 year old girl who was raped, (are you even able to imagine such a thing?) go and sit with the wife and children who had to witness their husband and father, murdered by armed intruders.

Hyperbole? You need to pick up a dictionary.

If these people would have owned a hand gun, the outcomes would have been very different. The law abiding living - the criminal dead.

If everyone in the City of Toronto owned a gun, where would these criminals be? In jail or 6 feet under, which is exactly where they belong.

The law abiding build things - the criminals distroy things. In which category would you place the Liberal Party of Canada?

While you make some good points regarding those that work on the front lines and the impact on the victims. I certainly can’t comprehend it no more than I can appreciate what a soldier experiences in combat. Most of us in the general population can’t comprehend what’s happening and yes it’s hyperbole to the uninitiated. But, it’s the uninitiated that we need to come to grips with the crime problem to make effective change. If we lose them at the gate it’ll be awhile before they come back to the story. And yes I did pick up the dictionary. Maybe hyperbole is in the eye of the reader, somewhat subjective.

James Turner's avatar

Maybe. But since nothing else seems to be getting through to the "uninitiated", maybe hyperbole is what's needed. I still don't see it as that though - maybe simply relating the graphic details, the reality. During my nine years in the military, I have seen this reality in foreign lands, up close and personal. It's ugly and soul wrenching and never leaves you. And our children are now being forced to endure it.

To me it seems that hyperbole and truth are distant cousins at best. Hyperbole is defined by Webster as "extravagant exaggeration". Perhaps Mr. Scheffers is referring to words that evoke, incite, emotional response. It is true that some people are uncomfortable when faced with emotionally-charged adjectives. Are such words "hyperbole"? No, in my opinion. As Mr. Turner implies, there is no scale of language propriety when the topic is murder, rape of children, sudden forced entry into your private space by intruders with weapons with intent to harm, here in Canada or, may I say, any place on this planet.
