You know how there's a 2nd amendment in the U.S. on the right to bear arms? I know that it was originally meant to allow people to form militias and defend their rights should the government become an authoritarian regime and stop following the constitution.

Is there anything similar in Canada in terms of laws or rights and freedoms?

Interesting. I'm going to give this a read.

I should mention while the criminal code doesn’t prohibit folks from open carrying on public land it is typically not recommended for PAL holders to open carry in cities where crown land may be, most Canadians are not familiar with the firearms laws and may take it the wrong way, as well as provinces may dictate their own policies regarding where it is acceptable.

Crown Land Maps Is a good way to depict where public land is but always double check provincial guidelines.

Hope this helps!

The goal is not to walk around with a gun on me for fun. I'm not talking about U.S. style gun culture where you walk in a store with an AR-15 on a strap.

I'm thinking organized militias to protect protesters and keep them safe from the police. That sort of thing.
