This guy is retiring soon, hope for a new guy.

Why wait in agony until that day comes?

Yes!

Tom takes the photos and I do get one often in an order. Not all the time though.

Here are a couple more:

Most people don't know that coffee originates from Ethiopia. I'd love to see an original forest as opposed to a plantation.

Agh, so I keep loosing the alerts for this thread and don't notice, always so many pages to go through!

Anyway, I thought I would jump in and save Canada's reputation here !

The knives that are illegal are switch-blade type knives. Pretty much all others are fine: unless you hurt someone with it, then the law says you were carrying the knife with intent to do harm.

So don't stab anyone or carry a switch-blade (or variants), and you're fine.

It is not hurting right now. I can't believe the blood did not concern him! But i am going to continue using some of these meds and see how it goes. And if it starts to bother me or has discharge i will ask to see someone else.

Here in Edmonton even pen knives/pocket knives are illegal. Maybe it's a city law.

Makes sense! Federal just sets the absolute no-nos.
I think around here there may be some extra rules regarding length, but I'm not sure

Why not? What do you do, chew them off?

Alaska used to consider some knives illegal. Luckily, that law was changed, you can now carry whatever blade you want, even spring assisted switchblades, or swords.

When we were teenagers we got searched by the cops in a parking lot because they thought we were doing drugs. We were not, but I'm pretty sure they were a bit pissed that they didn't make a 'bust'. Our one friend had a police baton on him, because he was a macho idiot, so they confiscated it. They also confiscated my boyfriends Swiss army/pocket knife which was not illegal. They were asking him if he had it to protect himself making drug deals. Geesh, that was not our scene. But he decided not to make a fuss since his friend could actually get charged with having a prohibited weapon

My boyfriend also tried to get into a club once (I wasn't there), and he had a pocket knife he had forgotten about (country kid). So of course the bouncers all started to give him trouble, took the knife and were trying to intimidate him.

Lesson learned...no knives in the city
