Saskatchewan – a province of gun toting socialists. Better watch out, you Americans, or you will be forced to accept universal health care at the point of a gun.
Heh; Saskatchewan throwing their weight around. I can see it now; “Hi there. If it’s not too much trouble, could I get you to have universal healthcare or I’ll shoot you? Thanks, dear. Here, have some of this pie.” 
Saskatoon berry pie, naturally! 
This brought me a well needed morning laugh - thanks!
Liberal, non-gun owning and non-gun shooting parent of a kid with a diagnosis of Asperger’s.
I taught my kids to never, ever ‘play’ with a gun. If they find one somewhere, they are to not touch it and notify the nearest adult.
If that is a good rule, perhaps you can bring it up casually sometime as a place to start.
Nice gun. I own the Bersa Thunder .45 myself.
It is kept loaded at all times with hollow points - simultaneously ready within seconds and yet inaccessible to my children. This can be done.
Now you’ve gone and made me all hungry! There’s nothing better than Saskatoon berry pie. Nothing.
Well, except maybe good sex. Maybe.
Good sex THEN saskatoon berry pie! With the hockey game on! The Canadian trifecta!
That is exactly what the NRA teaches in their “Eddie Eagle” child gun safety program:
What about including the best Canadian Microbrew in your region ('cause, you know, the good stuff doesn’t travel), and Timbits? Um … the Canadian superfecta?
We have three young children. There are guns all over our house. (I don’t believe in locking them up.) Living room, bedrooms, kitchen, basement… everywhere.
We live in a rural area, so just about everyone around here has guns. So it’s not a problem as far as our children’s friends go. But when one of them *does *bring a friend over, I will put away the guns. Not because I’m afraid of what they’ll say to the parents; the reason is because I do not know if their friend has been “gun-proofed.”
I’ve never had Saskatoon berries. This is sad because I am half Saskatchewanesian, on my father’s side. Although, he never took me there so maybe I shouldn’t claim Saskatchewanesianess after all and I probably don’t even deserve to taste the berries. But I’d like to.
Canadians around here in B.C. hunt black bear as well. But not primarily for trophy hunting. Bear meat is often considered similar to pork.
Saskatoon berries are awesome. They are also known as serviceberries or juneberries in the US, so if you’ve had those, you’ve had saskatoons.
Canadian here, from generally liberal southern Ontario. It wouldn’t bother me in the least, but it helps that I’m not a fear-stricken idiot who does whatever David Miller tells him.
Nonetheless, I’d lie like a rug to help my child, if that’s what it took. Whatever helps my kid.
Disclaimer: While I own no guns and would not want one in my house, I served in the armed forces and have considerable experience using them, so my familiarity with them probably colours my opinions.
