When the topic of survival comes up, the spotlight usually swings toward Boomers (stockpiling retirement beans since Y2K) or Millennials (who prep by making aesthetically pleasing Instagram bug-out bags). Meanwhile, Gen Z gets praised for their digital savvy and dark humor. But there’s one generation that has been quietly building the exact skillset needed for…
When most people think of preparedness, they imagine shelves of canned food, bug-out bags, water filters, or backup generators. All of these are valuable, but the most powerful survival tool is one that cannot be bought online or stored in your basement—it’s your mindset. The truth is simple: gear can be lost, stolen, or broken,…
When most people think of preparedness, they imagine stockpiling food, learning survival skills, or setting up off-grid power systems. But in 2025, one of the biggest threats Canadians face isn’t necessarily a grid-down scenario — it’s economic instability. Inflation, soaring housing costs, rising food prices, and supply chain disruptions have forced many families to rethink…
When most Canadians think of hurricanes, they picture Florida, the Caribbean, or the Gulf Coast—not Toronto, Halifax, or Montreal. But the reality is that Atlantic hurricanes and their remnants have struck Canada many times, bringing widespread flooding, power outages, and billions in damages. One of the most instructive examples for Canadian preppers is Hurricane Sandy…

When disaster strikes—whether it’s a prolonged power outage, a flood, or a nationwide supply chain disruption—your chances of thriving often depend less on how much you’ve stockpiled and more on the strength of your community. In Canada, where diverse climates and vast distances can make professional help slow to arrive, a Mutual Assistance Group (MAG)…
For many Canadians, the word “prepper” conjures images of rural retreats, woodlots, and stocked barns.

These unseen systems control everything from pumping water into your sink to moving billions of dollars across the globe. And while most people worry about storms, wildfires, or pandemics, the greatest threat to modern civilization may not come…
Introduction Across Canada, households are being squeezed by a perfect storm: inflation, housing costs, and supply chain disruptions.
