AN ENFORCED CONSTITUTION IS THE NATIONAL BEDROCK OF EVERYTHING:
But What About A Constitution That Is Pliable & Subjective?
A Constitution That Clearly Spells-Out The Rights & Freedoms Of Citizens, Created By & For the Citizens with the Least Amount of Confusing Words (Political Legalese), Is A Document That Guarantees Freedom Opposed To Tyranny.
Canada Doesn’t Really Have A First Amendment (In Name Only) And Nothing Even Close To A Second Amendment Enjoyed By Americans. And Even though our (Canadian) Charter of Rights & Freedoms Exists as our Constitution, there are so Many Contradictions to our Basic Rights, that our Freedoms are More Assumed than they are Guaranteed.
For Example . . . Freedom of Expression in Canada is Based Upon a Government Agency’s Opinion (Canadian Human Rights Commission) on What Could be Said (Expressed) and What Cannot be Said (Expressed) in Written Word, Illustration and/or Oral Speech.
What Kind Of Freedom Is That?
As For Firearms . . . Canada is a Breath Away from Banning the Ownership of all Firearms Nationally, Even though the Bulk of National, Provincial & Municipal Police Have Repeatedly Declared through Honest Statistics, that Gun Ownership in Canada, In The Hands Of Law-Abiding Citizens, Is Of No Threat To The General Population.
So Why Does The Liberal Government Want To Take Away Our Guns?
In A Bit Less Than A Year From Now, it Appears that the Canadian Conservative Party Under Pierre Poilievre will Take Ownership of the Prime Minister’s Office with a Majority Government in Parliament.
And If Poilievre Stands True To Form, I Believe that Canada will Have the Opportunity to Move my Country Closer to an American Appreciation of the First & Second Amendments . . . Which Also Depends Greatly On Whether Trump Wins In A Few Weeks-Time From Today.
BUT THIS IS NOT ABOUT THE FIRST & SECOND AMENDMENTS:
This Editorial Is About The American Tenth Amendment . . . State’s Rights.
State & Provincial Rights Are Part Of What Melds Our Two Countries Together . . . Vis-À-Vis the Rights of States & Provinces to Stand Against Federal Intrusions into State & Provincial Jurisdictions, Which Both Federal Governments (USA & Canada) Are Doing Their Best To Intrude Upon.
Let Me Be As Clear As I Can Be . . . State & Provincial Rights Far Exceed the Rights of our Respective Constitutions as they are Being Applied Today, since we Have Already Seen How our Federal Governments Have Wildly Overstepped their National Mandates in Many Circumstances, But None More Egregiously & Harmful Than The Total Suspension Of All Our Supposed Constitutional Rights In The Name Of Covid.
OUR GOVERNMENTS FIELD-TESTED TYRANNY THROUGH COVID & THEY WON:
Anne & I Had A Very Pleasant/Unpleasant Conversation With A Young Woman The Other Day, when we Were Buying New I-Phones, Because ours were Too Old to Accept Many of the Updates. And Whether We Like it or Not, Because of the Amount of Traveling We Do, and the Plethora of Reading, Writing & Publishing that Has Become Part of our Lives, We Need To Have Up To Date Phones & Operative Technologies (Computers & Programs).
The Young Woman Serving Us At The Telephone Store Counter Was Very Competent. She was Pleasant, People Oriented, Fully Bilingual (French & English) & Really Good to Deal With – BUT . . .
. . . We Made Small Talk while Anne & I Hung Around for More than an Hour while she Transitioned our Older Phones Into our Newer Phones, which Led us to Discuss all Manner of Issues, which Inevitably Led to Politics, Which Threw Us For A Loop, when she Said that she Had No Interest in Politics, Had No Idea who was Running Canada and Has No Intention of Voting in any Future Election.
What Bothered Me Most, Wasn’t Necessarily Her Specific Attitude, But More Succinctly, if she was Simply a Representative of a Much Larger Majority of Young Voters who Have No Understanding About the Importance for them to Vote with at the Least Some Useful Information About the Parties, the Candidates and their Policies . . . What Chance Does Canada Or The United States Have To Remain Constitutionally Free Nations, If There Are Not Enough People To Defend Those Freedoms?
SO WHAT DO WE DO WHEN THE CONSTITUTION DOESN’T DO-IT?
If Trump & The Majority Ticket (Senate & The House) Of Conservative Republicans Don’t Win On November 5, 2024 . . . The Limited (Geographical) Freedoms of America will Remain Almost Exclusively Within the Will and the National Guards of Independent States. Texas & Florida Are The First Two States That Come To Mind.
The Same Can Be Said About Canada, If Poilievre & His Conservative Candidates Don’t Win In Canada’s Forthcoming Federal Election, Which We Can See Now, as Alberta and to a Somewhat Lesser Degree Saskatchewan, are Both Waving their Provincial Flags Regarding Gun Ownership, Fossil Fuel Independence, Equalization & Transfer Payments, where Alberta & Saskatchewan are Paying the Lion’s Share for all of Canada, Including The Separatist (Racist) Province Of Quebec.
Alberta Is Also Talking About Shucking The RCMP As Its Provincial Police Force, to be Replaced by a Real Provincial Police Force Totally Under the Command of Alberta, Akin To The Quebec Provincial & Ontario Provincial Police Forces.
And In Addition . . . Alberta Has Been Contemplating Trading-In the Canada Pension Plan for an All-Alberta Pension Plan Similar to the Independent Pension Plan of the Separatist Province of Quebec.
There’s Also A Brewing Debate Over The Canada Healthcare System . . . with Several Provinces Looking to Partially Opt-Out of the Federally Forced Single Government Pay-All Services, Which Aren’t Working All That Well, in Exchange for a Two-Tier Medical System, Which Is Available To People Who Can Afford To Pay, that Exists in Many Countries that Have Hybrid Government-Paid Healthcare.
ARE WE FINISHED IF THE WORST TRIES TO HAPPEN?
So If . . . Or Perhaps When – Our Freedoms Will be Usurped to the Breaking-Point by Either or Both of our Federal Governments . . . Be Aware, that all Might Not be Totally Lost, as Long as We Have State/Provincial Governments Ready to Fight, And I Do Mean Fight, To Preserve Our Legitimate Rights & Freedoms.
Our Constitutions Are Only Great . . . If We Are Prepared To Do All It Takes To Keep Them Great.
Best Regards . . . Howard Galganov

I found your article frightening. No Constitution? “What ifs” become “when” if Kamala is elected. She, as Biden is, is under Obama’s boot. He wants to do away with America .Jealousy. His govts of choice cannot equal We The People, no matter how they strive. Obama grows angrier. Kamala will chip away at freedoms. Dems may cheer, not understanding. “We won the battle!” Fools, you lost the country. My hopes are with Trump – and Canada – to forge common sense paths & right the Leftist
Poilievre (pronounced Polly-ev) is a gift. Common sense will return if he’s elected. Watch his apple eating interview with a totally biased, fact ignorant, lefty journalist if you can still find it.
Unfortunatly, the lead headed moron we have in N.Y. State is an all out and out communist and is worse than Harris when it comes to second amendment rights, we are now having to register ammunition and also now have to register our huning rifles and other long guns with the new Gestapo (N.Y.S. Police) I believe this is to limitour ability to defend ourselves agains the illegal immigrants flooding into the country. every time Houchel gets beat in court she comes up with more unconstitutional laws
Just read in Newsmax that 82% Jews do not feel safe in Canada under Trudeau-Freeland Government! Trump has got to win or we in North America freedom will be GONE! Next, vote out these WEF puppets and the Communist Chinese who are being elected in powerful roles in our Provinces government.
We should pray that God will yet show mercy to a nation that has turned it’s back on Him spiritually,morally and financially.In all three areas our ” leaders” have given their minds over to strong delusions God help us.
I am sick of hearing about gun rights”. These are citizens rights. Take away the guns from the illegals, criminals, drug traffickers, sex traffickers, etc. Giuliani cleaned up NYC when he was mayor with a “search and frisk” law. They never seem to mention the criminals with guns. Why? Is this their communist take-over army? Then “defund the Police” and we are powerless. The law says “defend ourselves” and more important “defend against tyranny” WE ARE THERE
Sounds like we are at the cusp of civil war & it will be a lot like the other one — north vs south. My reason for that is because most leftist states are up north & patriotic/conservative states are down south. Virginia is in between, location-wise & politically w/eastern part of state being leftist & western part Constitutionalist. There were comments a year ago+ about western Virginia joining WV; nothing came of it. But we definitely need Trump, Vance & DeSantis – 2 terms ea. = 24 years.
Are Canadians so blind that they donèt realize that a two-tier system exists? At least here in Alberta, it does in dentistry and many other minor specialties such as podiatry. Without private supplemental insurance, most people could not access many medical services. In Alberta x-ray and most other lab needs are private. When we lived in BC, the same was true. Maybe the provinces should adopt a system such as Israel’s, with HMOs partially covered by the government. Too many long waits her
Civil War is coming regardless of who wins in Nov. Politicians have made it where they have too much power, they can vote in laws that protect the criminals, perverts and folks with no morals. If you make a comment, refuse to do business or deal with any of the fore mentioned you can be sued or your business ruined. Owning a Gun should only require that you not be a criminal and have had a Safe Handling Training, that is it. An Unarmed public are just future Victims of Gov’t.
The patriots in both our countries are solely responsible for saving our countries from the evils of socialism, communism, and Marxism. Thank goodness we have great leaders: Trump, who will help our country to survive and get beyond the present regime and Poilievre who will help Canada to defeat their present regime. We who are not afraid to speak and write of the truths about our present regimes will help to awaken the people who have heads in the sand. Our very existence counts on this.
