Misc “Men don’t wear pistols in Canada!”

The photographic, archaeological & written evidence seems to suggest otherwise.

Don‘t even make me delve into the first legislation against firearms ownership which dominion of Canada implemented and where those laws applied and who they were used against.

Well, they've made it illegal to do so, so it's an odd statement for anyone to make. Someone is just so proud to be different from Americans that it's kind of cringy.

You are exceptionally closed-minded, you know that? Being Canadian should never be "not being INSERT NATIONALITY." That is what is really cringe. I often see this way of thinking from people/nations with inferiority complex.

Sorry, how am I close minded? I'm pointing out that attitude in the author, dude.

I see. Perhaps, I misunderstood your response.

No worries. I just meant that the author seems to think being 'not American' is somehow a big flex. I don't have any issue with most Americans, nor with carrying handguns.

Honestly, the OP is somewhat vague on his position, imo. Rather, just some random statements.
