There may have been 4 murders but they are gang related, except one. In almost a year in Calgary I have never once felt unsafe which cannot be said for the UK!

...and a happy new year.

It's been said before and it will no doubt be said again that you find crime all over the world INCLUDING Canda. Canada is a marvellous place. I would not want to be anywhere else right now but it is certainly not crime-free.

4 less gang-bangers, and the suspect caught. That's all good isn't it?

How many dads were kicked to death in Canada in 2008, protecting his property from a group of young, drunk teenagers outside his house?

How many female students were kicked to death (and her boyfriend kicked in to a coma) for no other reason than they were goths?

Today I shot a few hundred rounds through a Ruger gp100 .357m and a Glock 17 9mm at my local Calgary gun club.

I never did that in England!


Not sayin' I'm just sayin'!
