I wouldn't say that, not until Parliament rises for the summer which is still a couple weeks off.

They need 30 sitting days, there isn't enough time before the house rises on the 23rd. Then they're not back until 19 Sept.

Thanks, but after all I've seen, there's only two people I trust to tell me what is going on procedurally: CalibreMag and Ian Runkle.

Calibre on silvercore podcast #79 made me subscribe to his magazine.

Holy shit dudes, these comments legitimately warm the cockles of my thoroughly frozen heart. Seriously.

Nothing, and I mean nothing, means more to me than reading the sentiment in these two comments. I've always endeavoured to report things as honestly as I can, and I am so freaking thankful that people value this magazine I've built enough to support it.

Seriously, thank you so much.

Dude, you were amazing on Silvercore, made me completely rethink how I interact with gun-control nuts advocates.

Well, a lot of us moderates are lost in the wilderness looking for some rationality.

I don't agree with everything you said, particularly about the lawsuits, I think they are worthwhile. And I like what the CCFR gang is doing there. But I don't really trust them on the parliamentary procedural stuff. They don't seem to be as accurate as I think they should be.

Yep, I haven't yet, but will be soon. My credit card is smoking after some unplanned handgun purchases...
