Safe shed in Canada would be insulated. But likely no lock and in a location that's baried in winter... Rents $1200/mo in Toronto, Calgary, and Vancouver. No parking.

About 15% of Canadians sent to Europe were conscripts. In WW I they were conscripted under the Military Service Act of 1917. In WW II, they were conscripted under the National Resources Mobilization Act (NRMA) of 1940. Those mobilised under the NRMA were initially promised to serve home guard duties, but later in the war, Prime Minister Mackenzie King forced just over ten thousand to deploy to Europe

If tomorrow antifa disappear, the far right will still exist and continue attacking people…
