In a shocking display of surrender that’s gone viral (vid above), a Canadian police chief from York Regional Police stood at a podium flanked by flags and delivered a message that epitomizes the emasculation of a once-proud nation: If criminals invade your home, just comply—don’t fight back. “The best defense for most people? Comply,” the chief intoned, as captured in a video posted by Florida-based journalist Eric Daugherty. This isn’t law enforcement; it’s capitulation, a direct result of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s radical leftist agenda that has disarmed citizens, coddled criminals, and turned Canada into a haven for invaders. Contrast this with red states like Florida and Texas, where stand-your-ground laws and the Second Amendment empower homeowners to shoot first and ask questions later, saving lives and deterring crime. Under Trudeau’s weak leadership, Canada has become a cautionary tale of how progressive policies breed vulnerability, leaving families at the mercy of thugs while American conservatives protect their castles with firepower. This York Regional Police advice isn’t an aberration—it’s the logical endpoint of Canada’s draconian gun control regime, which prioritizes virtue-signaling over self-defense. Trudeau himself has made it clear: Using a gun to protect your home isn’t a right in Canada.

In 2022, after announcing a handgun freeze, he doubled down, insisting that firearms are for hunting or sport, not for blasting away at intruders. This mindset has left Canadians defenseless, with strict storage laws requiring guns to be locked and unloaded—useless in a split-second home invasion. Meanwhile, crime is skyrocketing. Auto thefts, often involving violent home break-ins, have surged under Trudeau, with Toronto police advising residents to leave car keys by the front door to avoid confrontations. That’s right: Hand over your property to thieves to prevent escalation, because the government has failed to secure borders or enforce laws. Conservatives see this as the ultimate betrayal—Trudeau’s open-borders policies flood the country with unvetted migrants, fueling crime waves, while disarming law-abiding citizens. The numbers don’t lie: Despite Trudeau’s gun bans, violent crime has climbed. Handgun bans have backfired spectacularly, with stores selling out of pistols as Canadians rushed to buy before the freeze, proving that law-abiding folks want protection the government won’t provide.

“If somebody’s breaking into your house, you’re more than welcome to shoot them in Santa Rosa County—we prefer you do that, actually,” he said. This isn’t bluster; it’s policy. Florida’s stand-your-ground law allows deadly force without retreat if you fear for your life, leading to countless success stories. In 2021, a proud sheriff praised a homeowner who shot an intruder, declaring he “did exactly what he should have done.” Even in high-profile cases, like a mixed martial arts fighter killed during a home invasion in 2025, the law protected the resident who fired in self-defense. Florida’s approach deters crime: Burglars think twice when they know they might face armed patriots. Texas takes it further, with a robust castle doctrine that presumes deadly force is justified against intruders. In one case, a woman shot and killed a home-invading sex offender, embodying the Lone Star State’s no-nonsense stance. Another incident saw an elderly man on oxygen open fire on two suspects breaking in to steal narcotics, stopping them cold.

Governor Greg Abbott and conservatives like Rep. Morgan Luttrell have pushed bills to defend borders from “armed invaders,” extending the same logic to national security. In Texas, you’re not advised to comply—you’re encouraged to stand your ground. This contrasts sharply with Canada’s sheep-like submission, where self-defense can land you in court for “excessive force.” Trudeau’s failures have turned Canada into a progressive dystopia, where the government protects criminals’ “rights” over victims’. Broader failures under Trudeau amplify this weakness. His carbon taxes crush families, housing costs have soared 64%, and economic stagnation reigns. Yet he obsesses over gun grabs, ignoring how bans fail to stop black-market weapons fueling gang wars. Conservatives point to Sweden and the UK, where similar soft-on-crime policies have led to rape epidemics and unchecked migration chaos. In Canada, it’s the same: Failed border control invites crime, and disarmed citizens pay the price. Trudeau even undermined masculinity, jailing a father for “misgendering” his daughter while criminals walk free.
