    And many of those people hate Canada’s gun laws. The guy i work with from kapuskasing would gladly have Canada become the 51st state if it meant he could have more guns.

      So? It demonstrates that, contrary to your assertion that people depend on American gun laws, it is perfectly possible to exist in these situations with Canada’s gun laws. I get that people have an emotional dependency on guns, but that’s not an actual necessity.

        All I claimed was that alaskans would have a hard time giving up their guns to join Canada. I never claimed it was impossible to live rurally without a gun.
