Politics-What's on your mind?

I loved this helpful hint in the Globe and Mail ( our National newspaper ):

At his home in rural Manitoba, Dave MacDonald, president and lead survival instructor with the International Canadian School of Survival, has enough food stored to feed his family of four adults, four dogs and two cats throughout the winter.

Each fall, he fills his deep freezer with around 300 to 400 pounds of wild meat, some of which he slices thinly and preserves by drying. He keeps about 50 pounds of white rice and another 50 pounds of wild rice in grain bags, which he stores in high, dry areas around his house safe from pests. He also keeps onions, garlic, potatoes, carrots and other root vegetables covered in dry sand inside plastic tote containers."

He'll survive while they find my body lying in the grocery store aisle with my hand clutching the frozen veggie freezer door. Empty BTW.

I'm also trying to find "dry sand" here in Canada. I'm going to raid the construction site across the street once it gets dark.

You can also try Home Depot or Lowe's or whatever the Canadian equivalent is.
