The trips abroad help advertise for the Rebel. I think they are helping to make the Rebel more known, good for business. -

Ernest Albright commented 2019-09-11 10:01:01 -0400I am beginning to think there are too many frivolous trips, and wondering if I should continue donating money to Rebel. Greenland, Philippines, Europe, England trips that really have little to do with Canada, and the topic could just be reported on locally or other contacts. You always asking for money, yet I feel it is been waisted, please review your spending.

In my family for instance, we shot .22s with Dad when we were 5, and by 10 had shot enough he felt we were safe enough with firearms we got our first .22.
And there were NO shooting accidents.
I just talked to a very conservative kid (Actually in his early 20s and he owns a rifle.) and he didn’t even know what a rifle rack was. He was FLABBERGASTED people used to drive around with rifle hanging in truck windows. -

Ron Voss commented 2019-09-10 22:38:55 -0400A ‘fascinating’ series that could be covered by a travel magazine or National Geographic. We have a highly important election in Canada starting tomorrow and you are in Greenland covering a travelogue story. Couple that with the Rebel begging for money to cover the election. Bad optics.

Ruth Bard commented 2019-09-10 22:10:38 -0400Ignore the grumblers, Jessica. This has been a fascinating series. Canada’s north could take a page or two from Greenland, methinks.

Jan G commented 2019-09-10 20:34:32 -0400Greenlandic lifestyle is back to the basics.
It would have been interesting to know their views on all the gun laws that are being imposed and suggested in different countries. Especially when they are so dependent on guns for their livelihood and take it for granted that children will naturally graduate to using them.
I’d have to eat fish if I lived there. Arctic char? -
Ron Voss commented 2019-09-10 15:41:57 -0400Can you get back to Canada and cover the election. We’re not National Geographic.

James Risdon commented 2019-09-10 14:50:16 -0400How children learn to hunt and fish? Seriously?
That’s a little weak for a news hook, don’t you think?
