This is fucking stupid. I have lived around this area for my entire life and literally everyone who doesn’t live on a reserve (and isn’t part of an actual town) have wells or cisterns that were paid with privately.

The only thing stopping someone from getting their own well would be if the ground water isn’t available (very low probability that everyone around the reserve has ground water but the reserve doesn’t) or that the ground water is contaiminted (also very low probability for the same reason as before, and especially because contamination that bad would have a huge affect downstream in the Grand River).

Like shit, I have both a well and a cistern, as do all my neighbours around me… If someone could explain why wells and cisterns don’t work on this particular reserve I’d really appreciate it.

So what exactly is your argument about legally being allowed to possess the means to properly defend ourselves?

Considering that the US has less murders per gun than Canada does, I’m not sure issue is the guns.

I mean, the US does it better than any other western nation, we could at least be on par with them

True, though it’d be nice if it were legally recognised.

Also, governments are responsible for the most murders in history (excluding actual wars… which are also caused by governments) so wanting to protect yourself from the state isn’t a massive leap in logic or conspiracy’s territory.

Agreed, this is why we should be allowed to arm ourselves (among other reasons)

Maybe I don’t give a fuck if it’s a for-profit news publisher? History shows that entirely government funded news sources turn out much worse.

Sorry, I no longer realise what is and isn’t paywalled because I have the extension that bypasses the paywall so I don’t know it’s even there.

Get an extension to bypass the lay wall, easy-peasy

Hahahahaha, because Hamas/Palestians and basically every Muslim country treats LGBTQ people so well…

I challenge these Pride organisations to go run a Pride Parade pretty kuch anywhere in the Middle East except Israel and see what happens.
