Definitely interested! I don't know why this isn't catching fire! Briden is even giving a safe place to visit!! Hi by the way-I need to stop by and pickup some more buckets!!! 😀

I'm baffled actually! This gives us the opportunity to meet each other without opening our own homes. I'm in-even for a casual get to know people meet. What about July 22nd of this year-Does that work for you Briden?? Any one interested in a meet up

Dakota are you really baffled?...How frank would you like me to be? its no accident there isn't any meet ups at Briden since last year, or so I believe. if I put myself in Dwights position I sure wouldn't have one right now.
I think maybe you just haven't objectively looked at the situation and how sharply its changed in the last year to year and a half...and there are a number of perspectives to view it from, but first zoom out a bit and think of the cast of characters that make up Alberta and Bridens target market.
As a wag I would suspect much of his target market would be those who are rural (though not exclusive) largely and likely independent types, forward thinking in regards to wanting security from the shocks that occur to all through this brief life we have, and people willing to act in large or little ways to cushion those shocks so as to not be a burden to others and a help to all. Good stuff don't you think??... and I am speaking more for my province because I know it best, in other areas what I say may be way less a consideration....but I also suspect a large part of his market would be those who self identify as conservative ( I don't mean the party) and we could break that down further into social or economic conservative, but for my point lets just say conservative, not saying I am judging that as good or bad just stating it as a condition. So far it looks like a good target market likely to buy into the products and services sold, a win-win you could say, Reasonableness all around, what could go wrong?

Well again this is Alberta, and if we are being honest with one another, those who live here know we still have the largest consentration of what in the kindest terms I can think of would still be called Christian supremasists. Largely on the down low as the young hipsters would say, or were on the down low....the election down south brought them out of the closet, for those of us with grey, or no hair we know they have really been in control ( or of the largest single behind the scenes influence) since the 80's down south, but its now undeniably clear.
This has triggered in my province, but also throughout Canada, though again I say to a much, much larger extent in my province the hope in these dumb stupid meat sacks, that they can gain the levers of political influence as has been done down south.
Maybe they will, I don't know, and I speculate even further, does briden know? not likely, again I am only speculating, I neither know the company nor owner, I only am forming my thoughts as someone standing in his shoes so to speak.
Does he dare have a meet up right now? who would show up? who has in the past?
Did you miss this link?
https://www.vice.com/en_ca/article/new9wd/the-birth-of-canadas-armed-anti-islamic-patriot-group
Anyone you know, scrolling through the page I can name off a dozen, first and last names. These are who will show up, but now decked out in their finest matching fetish gear, and advertising for the cause. Would you want your business associated with these people?
It was already well known up here years ago, that if you want to avoid these types, you "arrange" things privately, Pms only, other wise you will be dealing with those who are wound a little too tight, or those associated with them.
I should add these arnt the only ones in Alberta, to my provinces embarrassment there must now be at least a half dozen such type groups, I will just put a couple below.
There is soldiers of oden Edmonton,
Independent patriots,
Guardians of Alberta
And when I first stumbled upon this I thought it was something like a WWF spoof, a parody....but no these guys are for real, prancing around Edmonton and Calgary.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ybe3zXFiggQ and on camera you can watch this one guy in the background, wander off to pee, too lazy to go back in the store to use the bathroom that's feet away? just to funny!
and something called the Canadian combat coalition
https://www.facebook.com/C3AlbertaChapter/
Now these are separate names, but the groups but act with coordination.
Think about it a bit and I think you might agree with me that this might be why.

But now to the lighter side....The above named groups largely stay in their own eco chambers on the net, so They think they are "all that" so to speak, but here is a example of how they are going over with the average Calgarian please read some of the comments....I was in stitches..beer coming out my nose.....too funny, and too my Provinces credit. ( you may need to reload the page if it doesn't pop right up)
