    Correct, the headline is a little misleading as this announcement was as a result of the headlines about Sask farmers carrying firearms with them on a daily basis.

    Anyone know how this insurance compares to that offered as an option when you purchase your CCFR membership. If memory serves me correctly I could have purchased the membership, legal advice and insurance for cheaper than this. Not trying to be little this insurance (more options the better imo), just curious. I mean if you can get insurance and support a great organization might be worthwhile to look into.
    100% agree with the poster who said its sad this exits (a need for it), but 1 look at the poor gent in Ontario who had legitimate reason to fear for his life should be all one needs to know about how dire basic HUMAN RIGHTS are in Canada. This is the exact reason why we all need to do whatever we can to shift the momentum surrounding this farce they call Gun Control.

    It does. Coverage right across Canada. The title is misleading.

    I find it hard to get excited over insurance. While it's nice that such a thing exists, what guarantee do we have that the insurance company(s) isn't going to provide the usual run-around when you try to use it, or flat out refuse.

    That's a reasonable question. There are no "guarantees", just contracts.
    You must read the fine-print very carefully, paying particular attention to the exclusions. But if you want to truly understand the policy then you may have to spend a few bucks and speak to an insurance lawyer and get some advice. Normally, I would also recommend speaking to a really, really good insurance broker, but I doubt many are well versed in the in-and-outs of a niche-product like this.

    Having said the above, generally speaking, it's a very good idea. (NB: I haven't read the policy yet.) My hourly rate for general legal advice (civil) is $500/hour. If I were in Toronto, it would likely be double that rate. Legal services get expensive, fast.

    Sorry for delay, it just took me a while to figure out how.
