If you live in Canada or know someone who does, make sure to pass this along
The federal government is proposing to ease restrictions on foreign law-enforcement officers who carry weapons into Canada.
In a reciprocal agreement with the United States, the regulation would exempt officers, including police and air marshals, from a “foreign state†from having to obtain permits for side arms, according to a posting on the government’s official publication, the Canada Gazette and reported on CTV News Monday night.
The changes could mean that both domestic and foreign officers could enter and leave Canada with their weapons without having to get an import and export permit. Currently, police officers from other countries can bring weapons into Canada only in extreme circumstances, such as when accompanying a head of state on an official visit.
Yes, you read that right: A Georgia State Trooper, with the big mirrored shades, Smokey the Bear hat, the tail-light breaking nightstick and attitude overabundance has more rights to self defense in Canada than does a Canadian citizen.
Sleep tight, eh.
