KeymasterLatest update from Omkaar. Unfortunately the links from my email don’t carry over on this site…
Well that didn’t take long
Remember on the last email when talking about the OIC ban and shotguns, I pointed out that it does not matter what the minister says because first off bill blair is a liar and secondly because the RCMP has been know to reinterpret the law as they see fit.Well it seems that they are both keen to prove me right.
Here is lying bill proclaiming that shotguns are not being banned:
And here is the list of shotguns that the RCMP has arbitrarily changed the FRT for moving said firearms from non-restricted to prohibited:
So good news right, because none of the popular shotguns are on that list, no remington, mossberg, benelli. I mean those are just cheap turkish made shotguns, some of them even look scary.
If you own a gun and haven’t woken up to the reality of what gun owners in Canada are facing, then you are as bad as lying bill except that you are only lying to yourself.
We need to pull together as gun owners and oppose this OIC. If we don’t do it now, next time will be too late.Okay, So what can we do?
There are a couple of actions that we can take to start pushing back on this.1. By allowing a section of Canadian society to continue to hunt with firearms banned in the OIC, the gov’t is creating divisions in our society and discriminating against other Canadians. For that we have legitimate grounds to file a human rights complaint and let them know you are unfairly affected by this. Details on how to do this can found here:
File a Human Rights Complaint2. Join the CCFR or the CSSA. Both of these organizations are already engaged in the fight and need our support. The CCFR has announced that they are in the process of filing a Charter Challenge, this will cost money and they will need all the help they can get. If you are already a member please consider making a donation towards the lawsuits that they are filing against the govt.
3. Flood your MP and Parliament with letters, emails and phone calls. I keep saying this in every email because it is important that you do this even if your MP is liberal, let them know that you are a law abiding firearm owner and will be out canvassing for their opponent next election. Get your friends and family to do the same. This is stupidly easy to do. Set a goal to call at least one politician every day.
4. Sign these petition and every other petition that you see about rolling back the OIC.
Don’t forget to look for the confirmation email and click the link to confirm signing (check your junk/spam folder).
E-2574 Petition Sponsored by MP Michelle Rempel Garner
E-2576 Petition Sponsored by MP Todd Doherty
Get your friends and family to do the same. Yes, I know they ignored the last petition, but this is a legitimate way for us to register our opposition to these unjust changes to the law.5. Get active on Social Media. Twitter and Facebook maybe cesspools, but the reality is that many look to both of those sites for information, we need to make sure that we are there presenting cohesive information.
We must ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS be pleasant, polite and factual. Any information we present must be backed by fact from established sources.
We need to remeber that we are not talking to like minded people, we are talking to two audiences;
i. The anti gun crowd who will use any reason they can find to try to paint us as fringe, right wing, conspiracy theorist, extremists nutjobs. We cannot change their minds becasue they are idiots, ignore them.
ii. The misled people in the middle, these are the people who we need to reach. They only know what they see on tv, they don’t know firearms and think that our laws are the same as the US laws. We need to point out where they are wrong or misguided and in a polite friendly manner educate them.Discussions about anything outside of the generally accepted norm is not recommended.
Some places to start:
Bill Blair Facebook page
Justin Trudeau Facebook page
Liberal Party of Canada Facebook pageThank you and Stay safe,

KeymasterStopped working again…. guess I’ll have to do something about it.

KeymasterWell, I started the car to move it out of the garage and the fuel gauge was working! I didn’t even do anything, other than wiggle the wires back at the tank…. Whatever, chalked it up as a win and put everything back together after taping up the bare wires I found.
Slick_Yota
KeymasterUnfortunately there is a high potential of that. I’m hoping to find a loose wire had let go…
Slick_Yota
KeymasterUsually the e-brake stops working all together when it gets to that point. When you go to release, the handle goes in, but the cable stays put… Isn’t redee automatic? You don’t need that thing, except to pass safety.
I replaced both e-brake cables on my 09 Taco back in 2013. They both had casing broken at the drum from the stress of the lift and heave wheeling back then… Not a bad job at all.
For me to do it leisurely in my garage;
1) less than half the dealer book time for a mechanic to do it
2) only $300 in parts as compared to dealer estimate of >$1000
3) I found the almost non-existent brake shoes they didn’t tell me about…Slick_Yota
KeymasterThe fuel gauge stopped working Saturday. Checking for loose wires, I found 2 bare wires in the trunk (had to crawl in from behind the seats)… Connections at the fuel tank are ok. Haven’t had time to check what these wires affect yet – hopefully it’s that simple.

KeymasterD’oh!!!

KeymasterWhat are you hoping to get for that little tent trailer? You can PM me with some deets.

KeymasterIt’s about 3/4 done now, after 2 days solo. The ceilings are 11′ high, so the lift was the only option.
I’ve done a lot of ceilings with just 2×4 “T” braces, but after 1 time renting a hoist I knew I needed one!
Once the garage is done, I only have a small portion of the basement left to finish. I guess I’ll either sell it or rent it out (likely the latter).
I was dying to take the car for a rip today, but kept at the garage… supposed to rain tomorrow, so I should be able to finish hanging the sheets.

KeymasterIf you install an adjustable (can’t remember the name) rheostat(?), like my 51 has you can adjust if the temp is running too hot.
Slick_Yota
KeymasterHave you tested the thermostat? You’re up to 30 pages now and I don’t want to go back and look – lol.
Those dual 9’s pulling should do the trick.

KeymasterFound a puddle of coolant on the garage floor today when I moved the Dodge back after drywalling 16’ of the front.
Coming from the upper road hose clamp. Moved the 1 clamp up to the rad and put another on right in front of the spool.
Tightened up all the other clamps while I was at it.
Front progress:

KeymasterIs the rad the stock Yota rad or changes to Chevy with the engine swap?

KeymasterThanks Tom. I didn’t get before/after of the driver’s seat, but now my nose lines up with the steering column.
