If you don’t, no need to reply telling me you don’t. I live in the woods with some critters. I live pretty far from neighbors/police so having a gun gives me peace of mind. I also hunt and consider myself a gun hobbiest. I enjoy shooting targets, cleaning/organizing, reloading and earning food with guns.

    it just means I’ll be more capable of surviving.

    “more capable” does not mean “capable”

    is to just pack up my truck, (…) Then abandon the truck

    Can you see the flaw with that plan?

    I doubt many or any people will end up anywhere near me in far northern Ontario.

    Like I mentioned in the other branch: That is basically the only way that people in Global North communities CAN “live off the wilderness”. There are so few people trying that the heavily depopulated forests and lack of farmable land matter less. And even then, most of those people tend to rely on going into town “every so often” for supplies.

    But also? if we are actually in an apocalypse, you can bet that more than just you will think about those forests. And some of them will be as trained, if not moreso, than you and won’t have abandoned all their supplies in a truck on the side of the road.
