    Do you routinely walk into open expanses during electrical storms?

      Do you routinely go around knocking on strangers doors? Or pulling into their driveways?

        Both are safe activities in Canada!

          They won’t. That’s the point.

              So no one in Canada has ever been shot? 🤔

                  I’m not moving anything. You think because a couple of people, in a country of 300 million killed by done crazy dude when they knock on his door, that the whole country is at risk. It’s a completely preposterous position. And this is not an exclusive risk to the US.

        Yeah, sometimes. I live in a country with strict gun laws though, so I’m less concerned about getting shot than I am about getting hit by lightening.

          Kinda weird to be randomly knocking on doors, but to each their own. The country is also massive, just visit the nice states. Depending on where you live, youd be just as likely to be stabbed then shot at for knocking on a door.
