Canadian Youtube Channels
Hey, I'm new to this community, I am currently waiting on my documentation for my PAL application and since doing my CFSC and CRFSC I've spent countless hours on youtube learning about the different actions and mechanics of firearms, as well as reviews and politics (primarily american in nature), but I digress.
One thing I haven't really noticed is much of a Canadian presence on youtube, the majority of videos I have come across have been American. I was wondering if anyone knows of any Canadian Firearm Youtubers. I would love to hear a Canadian voice on the current issues and even what we can do about it as citizens. Maybe I am looking in the wrong spots or searching the wrong way, so a little direction would be greatly appreciated.
TL;DR -- If you know any Canadian Firearm Youtubers drop their names in the comments!

Big +1 for Runkle of the Bailey.
The Canadian Coalition for Firearms Rights has an official channel with lots of content, too:

314 is great for showing off older guns and ammo that are unique to canada. also showing off fun "fudd" guns most gun channels ignore

I looked at black bear outdoors for reviews on the type 97 and wk 180c when I was choosing between the 2.

Precision Riflecraft makes great videos! Smaller channel and he doesn’t upload frequently but what he has is quality.

Hosergunguy, he hasn't posted in a little bit but he deserves a shout out. He also has an Instagram

My personal favorite active channels are Black Bear Outdoors, GNutzGuy, Riflechair, Britishmuzzleloaders, 212 Driller, Andrei Pecheneg and The Gear Hunting Guy.
Sadly there are lots of Dormant Canadian channels.

Arm & Gun - probably one of the largest if not the largest one right now, however features more prohibs as of late because he has a media license.
Runkle of the Bailey - AB based firearms lawyer who breaks down the law & cases regarding firearms in a very clear way.
GNutzGuy - Lots of modfication/gunsmithing for Canadian-Market guns like the T81.
CCFR - Advocacy group with podcasts & updates about national firearm politics.
Black Bear Outdoors - Reviews of Canadian-market guns.
Precision Riflecraft - New channel that features mostly precision rifles.
MDT - BC-based chassis makers that makes content both on their products and stuff like PRS shooting and whatnot.
Wolverine Supplies & TSE also puts out gun reviews, they're gun stores. Infrequent uploads though.
Canadian Classics - mostly YouTube shorts.
Silvercore - Podcasts about Canadian Firearms Community.
Hunting Gear Guy - reviews & info about lots of Canadian-Market guns, alongside with sports shooting and hunting info.
All I can think of right now. Probably missing a few store's and the NFA/CSSA may have a channel as well.
I do recall when Forgotten Weapons was here they also shot full autos from Marstar's inventory, but they rarely upload so it's better to see Ian's backlog from then.
A few more that have stopped uploading and/or some honorable mentions
