Hint: It has something to do with our stupid gun laws.

Oh dear, not that gun thing again!
Why do conservatives keep going on about the gun thing?
Bigger fish to fry!
In my personal opinion, guns are issue #768 on items of importance in this country.
I thought "How to become a criminal" might be about how to distribute cash filled manilla envelopes to Quebec politicians of whatever political persuasion.
However, this "gun thing" seems to be one of those issues that should be handled very delicately according to geography... particularly in urban and suburban areas of the country.
Perhaps, one should actually educate the public on the 2002 Auditor General Report stating that the cost of the registry has ballooned to over $1 billion and is way over-budget...
However, if the message is that one has the right to be a smart ass in completing Federal documents or that one has a God-given right as a Canadian citizen to carry an unregistered gun just because "couers-do bois" did then all bets are off.
Earth to Pierre, it's now the twenty first century...

“Loyal to the Core is a daring and provocative work. It deserves to be read by conservative activists and politicos.” – Western Standard
“This is a very important book.” -- Michael Coren, TV host
“A fascinating read” --- Seamus O'Regan, Canada AM
“I really enjoyed Loyal to the Core. It’s a great book”, - Charles Adler, radio host.
"Loyal to the Core should be required reading for anyone considering or starting a career at a conservative think tank or in electoral politics in general …Consider Loyal to the Core a cautionary tale that’s also a funny, easy read – with a few highly “stealable” ideas for media campaigns thrown in for good measure.”- Kathy Shaidle, author Tyranny of Nice
“Every Canadian remotely interested in politics and the state of the country should have a read of Loyal to the Core. – blogger Wendy Sullivan
"It’s rare to find a politico, however, who is equally passionate about policy and strategy, but columnist, pundit, author and Western Standard blogger Gerry Nicholls is such a person." Matthew Johnson, owner Western Standard
"If you are a conservative who wonders how conservatives can communicate their message in a hostile media climate, Loyal to the Core is a must read." -- At Home in Hespeler
"You HAVE TO read this book!" -- Connie Fournier Free Dominion

... The gun thing is about #768 on my list as well...
Maybe, I am way off base here.
