From Saskatchewan myself, over a million pop and nearly a half are indigenous with a lot of issues. Suspect those two were under the influence of numerous things when they went on to do what they did. Nearly everyone I know hunts, fish and most rural folk own firearms, still. Saskatchewan and Alberta are more in line with Montana and the Dakotas then eastern Canada or British Columbia when it comes to such things. Americans love to come up where we hunt in northern Saskatchewan spring and fall, where whitetails and mulies are proper... deer sized, and not like those cute little things you have down south. Currently work in Ottawa, home of the RCMP Musical Ride (mounted) police force (see Freedom Convoy demonstrational event).

To be fair currently the CBC is reporting elements within the RCMP were potentially relaying information to the demonstrators throughout this winters bouncy castle Ottawa sit in. The RCMP were fighting the vaccine mandates throughout, not even sure if they were required to be vaccinated to hold their jobs this past winter during the demonstrations. People throughout Ottawa and immediate area are still driving around with their vehicles flagged up Freedom style, including the half ton truck currently parked across the road from my place, tonight.
